It's been seven hours and 15 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 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 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 So I could put my arms around every girl I see (But they'd only remind me of you) I went to the doctor and guess what she told me? Guess what she told me? Said, "Boy, you better try to have fun no matter what you do" But she's a fool 'Cause nothing compares Nothing compares to you 'Cause nothing compares Nothing compares to you All the flowers that you planted in the backyard ♪ All the flowers that you planted in the backyard All died when you went away All died when you went away All died when you went away ♪ All died when you went away All died when you went away All died when you went away
