Nothing Compares 2 U Songtext

von Prince

Lead voice by Prince & Rosie Gaines
Prince: It's been 7 hours and 13 days
Since u took your love away
I go out every night and sleep all day
Since u took your love away

Rosie: Since you've been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see who ever I choose
Eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant, oh yeah
But nothing, nothing can take away these blues

P & R: Nothing Compares, Nothing Compares 2 u

Rosie: Oh baby

Prince: It's been so lonely without u here
I'm like a bird without a song
Nothing can stop this 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 u

Prince: All my dames remind me of u too girl, oh yeah

Rosie: I went 2 the doctor, guess what he told me
Prince: What'd he tell u?

Rosie: Guess what he told me
Prince: I'm listening

Rosie: He said, "Rosie,"
Prince: What?

Rosie: "Try to have fun no matter what u do"
Prince: U wanna tell me why?

Rosie: He's a fool

P & R: Nothing Compares (No), Nothing Compares 2 u

Rosie: Ooh, baby
Prince: Tenor man, play it for me

Prince: All the flowers that u planted, sugar
In the backyard All died when u went away

Rosie: Ooh baby, I know that living with me baby
Is sometimes hard, sometimes hard
But I'm willing, I'm willing 2 give it one more try

Prince: One more try
Rosie: Please do you know why, do you know why

P & R: Nothing compares (No), Nothing Compares 2 u

Rosie: Oh, baby
Prince: Everytime I say...

P & R: Nothing compares (No), Nothing compares 2 u

Prince: Rosie Gaines
