It's been so lonely without you here
Like a bird without a song, oh oh oh oh oh
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from falling
Tell me, baby, where did I go wrong
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind of you, oh oh oh oh oh
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 fun
No matter what you do"
But he's a fool
'cos nothing compares, nothing compares to you
Oh oh oh oh oh
All the flowers that you planted, mama, in the back yard
All died when you went away, oh oh oh oh oh
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
Nothing compares, nothing compares to you
Nothing compares, nothing compares to you
