[Verse 1:]
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
[Verse 2:]
Since you've been gone I can do whatever I want
I can do whatever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
But nothing, I said nothing
Can take away these blues
[Chorus:]
Nothing compares
Nothing compares
To you
[Verse 3:]
It's been so lonely without you here
I'm like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears
Tell me baby, where did I go wrong?
[Verse 4:]
I can put my arms around every girl I see
But they all remind me of you
I went to the doctor
Guess what he told me
Say 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 5:]
All the flowers that you planted in the backyard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it a try
[Chorus 2x:]
Nothing compares
Nothing compares
To you
