NOTHING COMPARES TO YOU
Prince


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,
Sice 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,
Because 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 can put my arms around every boy I see,
But they 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’d better try to have some fun no matter what you do”.
But he’s a fool,
Because nothing compares to you.

All the flowers that you planted momma, in the backyard,
All died and withered away,
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard,
But I’m willing to try to give it another try.

Nothing compared, nothing compares to you,
Nothing compared, nothing compares to you,
Nothing compared, nothing compares to you.
