Nothing Compares 2 U

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 been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I choose
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
Oh yeah
But nothing
Nothing can take away these blues

[Chorus]
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Oh baby

It's been so lonely without you here
I'm like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop this lonely rain from falling
Tell me, baby, where did I go wrong

Oh baby, I could put my arms around every boy I see
Oh yeah
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor, guess what he told me
What'd he tell you?
Guess what he told me? I'm listening
He said "Rosie!" What?
"You better try to have fun no matter what you do"
You want to tell me why?
But he's a fool

[Chorus]
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

All the flowers that you planted, sugar
In the backyard
All died when you went away
Oooh, baby, I know that living with me baby is sometimes hard
Sometimes hard
But I'm willing
I'm willing to give it one more try
Do you know why? Do you know why?

[Chorus]
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
