Lyrics

It's been seven hours and 15 days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and I sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you've been gone, I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing, nothing can take away these blues
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
But tell me baby, where did I go wrong?
I could put my arms around every girl I see
But they would only remind me of you
I went to the doctor, and guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said, "Boy, you better try to have fun, no matter what you do"
But he's a fool
But he´s a fool
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
All the flowers that you planted mama
In the backyard
They all died when you went away
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Oh, nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
