	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

	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
