Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's been seven hours and fifteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out all night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you've been gone, I can do whatever I want
I can see whoever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing, nothing can take away these blues
[Chorus]
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
[Verse 2]
It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling, tell me
Where did I go wrong?
I can put my arms around any girl I choose
But it just reminds me of you
I went to the doctor, and guess what he told me
He said, "Boy, you better try to have fun, no matter what you do", but he's a fool
[Chorus]
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
[Verse 3]
All the flowers that you planted, mama, in your backyard
All died when you went away
And I know living with me, baby, is sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
[Chorus]
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
To you
