Nothing Compares to You


Prince first wrote the song after the death of his father. When his father passed they were on bad terms. Sinead O'Connor remade the song in the 90's after her mother passed. In some article it said that she wrote this song after her son's death.

Sinéad Marie Bernadette O'Connor (pronounced "Shih - Nay")(born 8 December 1966) is an Irish singer-songwriter. Sinead sings with such passion and emotion.

Lyrics:

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 n'guess what he told me
Guess what he told me
He said girl u better try to have fun
No matter what you'll do
But he's a fool
`Cause nothing compares
Nothing compares to you

all the flowers that you planted, mama
In the back yard
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
Nothing compares
Nothing compares to you (3x)
