Sinéad O'Connor - Nothing Compares 2 U

Nothing Compares 2 U - Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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, I said, nothing can take away these blues

[Chorus]
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

[Verse 2]
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 and 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

[Chorus]
'Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
All the flowers that you planted, mama, in the backyard
All died when you went away
I know that living with you, baby, was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try

[Outro]
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

Sinéad O'Connor has pain in her voice so her voice fits perfectly in the song "Nothing Compares 2 U" and with her amazing performance the song was perfected and became a worldwide hit. "Nothing Compares 2 U"'s lyrics express the feelings of longing expressed by an abandoned lover, and her magnificent vocals make it the loveliest of love songs. Although it is known as a love song, Sinéad O'Connor said that she sang "Nothing Compares 2 U" for her mother, so for her, "Nothing Compares 2 U" was an eternal tribute to her mother, whom she lost as a teenager. Whenever I listen to this song, I think of my mother and it always makes me emotional, sometimes even making me cry. It remains one of the best songs ever for me and is still on some of my playlists.
