Nothing Compares 2 U

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 whomever I choose

I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant

But nothing can take away the blues

Nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U

So lonely here without you

Like a bird without a song

Nothing can stop these lonely tears from fallin'

Tell me baby, where did I go wrong?

And I could put my arms around every boy that I see

But they'd only remind me of you

I went to the doctor and guess what he told me, he told me

He said Aretha, girl, you better have fun

Wooh, nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U, ooh-hoo

All the flowers that you sent me

They all died when you went away

I know it's hard livin' with me

But I'm willin' to try, willin' to try, willin' to try, yeah

Nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U

Ooh, nothing compares 2 U

Ooh

Nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U

Oh, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing compares 2 U

Nothing, nothing compares 2 U, boy

Nothing, nothing, nothing compares to U

Not shopping on a Sunday

Not ham hocks and greens

Nothing compares, nothing, nothing compares 2 U

Not my roller-skates, nothing compares 2 U

Hey, I love my darlin' toes

But nothing compares, nothing compares 2 U
