[Prince]
It's been seven hours and thirteen days
Since you took your love away
I go out every night and I sleep all day
Since you took your love away
[Rosie]
Since you've been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whoever I choose
Eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant, oh yeah
But nothing, nothing can take away these blues, uh oh
[Both]
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Oh baby
[Prince]
It's been so lonely without you here
I'm like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop with lonely rain from falling
Tell me baby, where did I go wrong?
[Rosie]
Oh baby
I can put my arms around every boy I see, oh yeah
But they only remind me of you
[Prince]
All my dames remind me of you too girl, oh yeah
[Rosie]
I went to the doctor
Guess what he told me
[Prince]
What'd he tell you
[Rosie]
Guess what he told me
[Prince]
I'm listening
[Rosie]
He said, Rosie
[Prince]
What?
[Rosie]
Try to have fun no matter what you do
[Prince]
You wanna tell me why
[Rosie]
He's a fool
[Both]
Nothing compares, no
Nothing compares to you
Oh baby
Hu, hu, tenor man, play it for me
[Prince]
All the flowers that you planted, sugar
That you planted in the back yard
All died when you went away
[Rosie]
I know that living with me baby is sometimes hard
Sometimes hard
But I'm willing, I'm willing to give it one more try
One more try
Please do you know why, do you know why
[Both]
Nothing compares, no
Nothing compares to you
Oh baby, everytime I say
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
[Prince]
