I can do whatever I want...

Listen to this love song. What words are missing in the lyrics below?



It's been seven hours and ____1____days
Since you took your love away

I go out every night and sleep _____2____
Since you took your love away 

Since you've  been gone I can do whatever I want
I can see whomever I  _____3____
I can eat my dinner in a fancy _____4_____
But nothing ...
I said nothing can take away these blues,
'Cause nothing compares ...
Nothing compares to you

It's been so ____5____ without you here
Like a ___6___ without a song
Nothing can stop these lonely tears from  _____7____
Tell me baby, where did I go wrong?

I could put my ____8_____  around every boy I see
But they'd only remind me of you

I went to the____9_____ and guess what he told me
Guess what he told me?
He said, girl, you better try to have ___10_____
No matter what you do
But he's a fool ...
'Cause nothing compares ...
Nothing compares to you ...
...
All the flowers that you ____11____, mama
In the back yard
All died when you went away 

I know that ____12____with you baby was sometimes hard
But I'm willing to give it another try

Nothing compares ...
Nothing compares to you (...x 2)
