You Wear It Well lyrics with English Translations
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 out of time but I don't mind
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 you wear it well There ain't a lady in the land so fine
Remember them basement parties, your brother's karate All the reggae 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
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 wanna 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, 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 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
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 you wear it well There ain't a lady in the land so fine
Remember them basement parties, your brother's karate All the reggae 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
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 wanna 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, 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 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
