Sinéad O Connor - Nothing Compares 2U


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 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
I could put my arms around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you
I went to the doctor guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said girl you better try to have fun no matter what you do
But he's a fool
'Cause nothing compares, nothing compares to you


All the flowers that you planted mama [I change this to:  for me, which makes this mean:  All the people and things I have tried to depend on to sustain me other than the Lord]
In the back yard
All died when you went away [I change this to:  in the wind and rain (meaning they died with adversity)]
I know that living with you baby was sometimes hard [Adversity]
But I'm willing to give it another try [I'm willing to deal with that kind of Adversity now.]
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
