Rod Stewart - You Wear It Well Lyrics
(rod stewart / martin quittenton)I had nothing to do on this hot afternoonBut to settle down and write you a lineIve been meaning to phone you but from minnesotaHell its been a very long timeYou wear it wellA little old fashioned but thats all rightWell I suppose youre thinking I bet hes sinkingOr he wouldnt get in touch with meOh I aint begging or losing my headI sure do want you to know that you wear it wellThere aint a lady in the land so fineRemember them basement parties, your brothers karateThe all day rock and roll showsThem homesick blues and radical viewsHavent left a mark on you, you wear it wellA little out of time but I dont mindBut I aint forgetting that you were once mineBut I blew it without even tryinNow Im eatin my heart outTryin to get a letter throughSince youve been gone its hard to carry onIm gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in townWhen you sat down and cried on the stairsYou knew it did not cost the earth, but for what its worthYou made me feel a millionaire and you wear it wellMadame onassis got nothing on youAnyway, my coffees cold and Im getting toldThat I gotta get back to workSo when the sun goes low and youre home all aloneThink of me and try not to laugh and I wear it wellI dont object if you call collectcos I aint forgetting that you were once mineBut I blew it without even tryinNow Im eatin my heart out tryin to get back to youAfter all the years I hope its the same addressSince youve been gone its hard to carry on
