| Rod Stewart – You Wear It Well Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
This song is about a woman he once dated, they drifted apart because he was younger and did something stupid to mess it up, but he still thinks about her and now regrets it. He's moved on with his life and accepted it, but is writing her a letter. It isn't out of desperation, he's just reminiscing and showing his appreciation for this woman and admitting to have shot himself in the foot as far as their relationship goes. But he wears it well, ie-he takes it in stride now, but still admires her...and he's pining for her a bit. I take "you wear it well" in this song to mean that he admires how she is comfortable being herself and knows who she is. "A little old fashioned", "a little out of time", she isn't perfect, but it doesn't matter because she is a genuine person who is comfortable in her own skin-wearing it well. Really sweet sentiment. I like this song. |
