You Wear It So Well Lyrics
All of those things, yeah, that you got to give
Yeah, you wear it so well
Yeah, you wear it so well
All of those stories, honey, that I know you could tell
Yeah, you wear it so well
And your face hides it, so we can't tell
That you knew, we would wear it so well
You war it so well
Yeah, darling, you wear it so well
Yeah, now, baby, now, you wear it so well
All of the things, that make poets sing
Yeah, you wear it so well, yeah
You hide it so well
And all of the pain, that you used to tell
You hide it so well
Can't tell from your face that you knew it so well
Hey, now, that you have such a story to tell
Yeah, you got style and grace
And you wear it so well, you wear it so well
And you got, you got such a story to tell
Yeah, yeah, you wear it so well
Grace and style equals you so well
Yeah, yeah, you wear it so well, yeah, so well
Yeah, you wear it, wear it, wear it, wear it, now, baby
Yeah, you wear it so well
And you got such a story to tell
Oooh, you wear it so well ...

Yeah, you wear it so well
And your face hides it, so we can't tell
That you knew, we would wear it so well
You war it so well
Yeah, now, baby, now, you wear it so well
Yeah, you wear it so well, yeah
You hide it so well
You hide it so well
Can't tell from your face that you knew it so well
Hey, now, that you have such a story to tell
Yeah, you got style and grace
And you wear it so well, you wear it so well
And you got, you got such a story to tell
Yeah, yeah, you wear it so well
Grace and style equals you so well
Yeah, yeah, you wear it so well, yeah, so well
Yeah, you wear it, wear it, wear it, wear it, now, baby
Yeah, you wear it so well

Oooh, you wear it so well ...

This could be about Nico, or any number of people he knew who'd had rough lives but didn’t go around crying about it. He’s clearly a great admirer of people like that. He certainly never hid his pain, he made a living writing about it - which is kind of a luxury, in a way. Women are expected to put on a happy face all the time. This song is probably about a woman.
