It's been seven hours and fifteen 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 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 could put 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 And 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
