Below, I translated the lyrics of the song You Wear It Well by Rod Stewart from German to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon
But to settle down and write you a line
But to settle down and write you a line
I've been meaning to phone you but from Minnesota
I've been meaning to phone you but from Minnesota
Hell it's been a very long time
Hell it's been a very long time
You wear it well
You wear it well
A little old fashioned but that's all right
A little old fashioned but that's all right
Well I suppose you're thinking I bet he's sinking
Well I suppose you're thinking I bet he's sinking
Or he wouldn't get in touch with me
Or he wouldn't get in touch with me
I ain't begging or losing my head
I ain't begging or losing my head
I sure do want you to know that you wear it well
I sure do want you to know that you wear it well
There ain't a lady in the land so fine
There ain't a lady in the land so fine
Remember them basement parties, your brother's karate
Remember the basement parties, your brother's karate
The all day rock and roll shows
The all day rock and roll shows
Them homesick blues and radical views
Them homesick blues and radical views
Haven't left a mark on you, you wear it well
Haven't left a mark on you, you wear it well
A little out of time but I don't mind
A little out of time but I don't mind
But I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But I blew it without even tryin'
But I blew it without even tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
Now I'm eatin' my heart out
Tryin' to get a letter through
Tryin' to get a letter through
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
I'm gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town
I'm gonna write about the birthday gown that I bought in town
When you sat down and cried on the stairs
When you sat down and cried on the stairs
You knew it did not cost the earth, but for what it's worth
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
You made me feel like a millionaire and you wore it well
Madame Onassis got nothing on you
Madame Onassis got nothing on you
Anyway, my coffee's cold and I'm getting told
Anyway, my coffee's cold and I'm getting told
That I gotta get back to work
That I gotta get back to work
So when the sun goes low and you're home all alone
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
Think of me and try not to laugh and I wear it well
I don't object if you call collect
I don't object if you call collect
'Cause I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
'Cause I ain't forgetting that you were once mine
But I blew it without even tryin'
But I blew it without even tryin'
Now I'm eatin' my heart out tryin' to get back to you
Now I'm eatin' my heart out tryin' to get back to you
After all the years I hope it's the same address
After all the years I hope it's the same address
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on
