Nothing compares to you, Sinnead O'Connor

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've been gone I can do whatever I want.

I can see whoever I choose.

I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant.

But nothing,I said 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, baby, where did I go wrong?

I could put my arms around every boy I see,

But they'd only remind me of you.

I went to the doctor, guess what he told me,

Guess what he told me?

He said, girl, you'd better 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, mamma,

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

'Cause nothing compares,

Nothing compares to you.
