Like a bird without a song
Guess what he told me
I go out every night and sleep all day
All the flowers that you planted, mama
Nothing compares
It's been so lonely without you here
'Cause nothing compares
I could put my arms around every boy I see
In the back yard
'Cause nothing compares
I can see whomever I choose
Nothing compares 2 U
I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant
Since you took your love away
Tell me baby, where did I go wrong?
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard
I went to the doctor an' guess what he told me
Since you been gone I can do whatever I want
Nothing compares 2 U
But I'm willing to give it another try
No matter what you do but he's a fool"
Nothing compares
But they'd only remind me of you
Nothing compares 2 U
Nothing compares 2 U
Nothing compares
He said, "Girl, you better try to have fun
But nothing, I said, nothing can take away these blues
All died when you went away
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
