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
But nothing
I said nothing can take away these blues

'Cause nothing compares
No, nothing compares to you

Nothing, nothing 
It's been so lonely without you here
I'm like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me, babe, where did I go wrong?

I could put my arms around every girl I see
But they'd only remind me of you (oh oh oh)
I went to the doctor, guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said "Boy you better try to have fun
No matter what you do"
But he's a fool

'Cause nothing compares
No, nothing compares to you

Nothing, nothing 

All the flowers that you planted, sugar
In the backyard
All died when you went away
Oh oh oh
I know that living with me baby was some kind of hard
But I'm willing to give it one more try

'Cause nothing compares
No, nothing compares to you

I said Nothing compares
Oh no no, nothing compares to you, ooh ooh ooh, you
