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 oh where did I go wrong?. I could put my arms around every girl I see. But they'd only remind me of you. So 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. Nothing compares to you. All the flowers that you planted momma 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. Nothing compares. Nothing compares to you
