It's been seven hours and sixteen days Since you took your love away ♪ I go out all the night and sleep all day Since you took your love away Since you been gone I can do whatever I want I can see who ever 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 Tell me, where did I go wrong I can throw my arms around any girl I choose But it just reminds me of you
I went to the doctor and guess what it told me Said, "Boy, you better try to have fun, no matter what you do" But he's a fool 'Cause nothing compares Nothing compares to you ♪ All the flowers that you planted, mama In your back yard All died when you went away I know living with me is sometimes hard But I'm willing, to give it another try 'Cause nothing compares Nothing compares to you Nothing compares Nothing compares to you To you To you
