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 whomever I choose   I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant   but nothin, I said nothin can take away these blues      CHORUS:   (Cause) nothing compares,   Nothing compares to you *repeat 2x more at end of song*      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 can 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 girl you better try to have fun no matter   what you do, but he's a fool      All the flowers that you planted mama   in the back yard   All died and they withered away   I know that livin with you baby was sometimes hard   but I'm willing to give it another try
