I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
But to settle down and write you a line
I've been meaning to phone you but from minnesota
Hell it's been a very long time
You wear it well
A little old fashioned but that's all right
Well i suppose you're thinking i bet he's sinking
Or he wouldn't get in touch with me
Oh i ain't begging or losing my head
I sure do want you to know that you wear it well
There ain't a lady in the land so fine
Remember them basement parties, your brother's karate
The all day rock and roll shows
Them homesick blues and radical views
Haven't left a mark on you, you wear it well
A little out of time but i don't mind
But i ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But i blew it without even tryin'
Now i'm eatin' my heart out
Tryin' to get a letter through
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
I'm gonna write about the birthday gown that i bought in town
When you sat down and cried on the stairs
You knew it did not cost the earth, but for what it's worth
You made me feel a millionaire and you wear it well
Madame onassis got nothing on you
Anyway, my coffee's cold and i'm getting told
That i gotta get back to work
So when the sun goes low and you're home all alone
Think of me and try not to laugh and i wear it well
I don't object if you call collect
'cos i ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But i blew it without even tryin'
Now i'm eatin' my heart out tryin' to get back to you
After all the years i hope it's the same address
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
