It's been seven hours and thirteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since you took your love away
Since you've been gone I can do what ever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant, But
nothin', I said nothin' can take away these blues, `Cause
nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U
It's been so lonely without you here
I'm like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling, Tell me
baby, where did I go wrong?
I could put my arms around every girl I see
But they'd 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, `Cause
nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U
All the flowers that you planted, in the backyard
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
Nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U
