I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
But to settle down and write you a line
Ive been meaning to phone you but from minnesota
Hell its been a very long time
You wear it well

A little old fashioned but thats all right

Well I suppose youre thinking I bet hes sinking
Or he wouldnt get in touch with me

Oh I aint begging or losing my head
I sure do want you to know that you wear it well

There aint a lady in the land so fine

Remember them basement parties,
your brothers karate
The all day rock and roll shows

Them homesick blues and radical views
Havent left a mark on you, you wear it well

A little out of time but I dont mind

But I aint forgetting that you were once mine

But I blew it without even tryin

Now Im eatin my heart out
Tryin to get a letter through

Since youve been gone its hard to carry on

Im 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 its worth

You made me feel a millionaire
and you wear it well

Madame onassis got nothing on you

Anyway, my coffees cold and Im getting told
That I gotta get back to work

So when the sun goes low and youre home all alone

Think of me and try not to laugh and I wear it well

I dont object if you call collect

cos I aint forgetting that you were once mine

But I blew it without even tryin

Now Im eatin my heart out tryin to get back to you

After all the years I hope its the same address

Since youve been gone its hard to carry on
