[length: 04:42]
[00:11.52]I had nothing to do
[00:28.02]on this hot afternoon
[00:30.73]but to settle down
[00:31.68]and write you a line.
[00:33.43]i’ve been meaning to phone you,
[00:37.90]but from minnesota,
[00:39.72]hell it’s been a very long time,
[00:41.53]you wear it well,
[00:44.28]a little old fashioned
[00:49.67]but that’s all right.
[00:51.45]Well i suppose you’re thinking i bet he’s sinking
[00:53.29]or he wouldn’t get in touch with me.
[00:56.83]oh i ain’t begging or losing my head.
[01:02.27]i sure do want you to know that you wear it well,
[01:04.06]there ain’t a lady in the land so fine.
[01:13.06]Remember those basement parties, your brother’s karate,
[01:16.63]the all day rock and roll shows.
[01:20.25]them homesick blues and radical view
[01:22.04]haven’t left a mark on you, you wear it well,
[01:25.60]a little out of time, but i don’t mind.
[01:34.76]But i ain’t forgetting that you were once mine,
[01:40.17]but i blew it without even tryin’.
[01:42.81]now i’m eatin’ my heart out,
[01:44.68]tryin’ to get a letter through.
[01:51.85](tryin’ to get back to you.)
[02:10.71]Since you’ve been gone it’s hard to carry on.
[02:13.44]i’m gonna write about the birthday gown that i bought in town,
[02:16.11]when you sat down and cried on the stairs.
[02:17.97]you knew it did not cost the earth, but for what it’s worth.
[02:21.59]you make me fell a millionaire and you wear it well.
[02:26.09]madame onassis got nothing on you.
[02:33.29]And when my coffee’s cold and i’m getting told
[02:36.82]that i gotta get back to work,
[02:40.43]so when the sun goes low and you’re home all alone,
[02:43.18]think of me and try not to laugh and i’ll wear it well.
[02:47.75]i don’t object if you call collect,
[02:53.14]’cos i ain’t forgetting that you were once mine.
