Oh your happiness, teardrops through the ocean And your black clouds that follow me And you write me off to my own distinction And your darkness it falls so deep It's never gonna go away Never gonna feel the same Block it out close the curtains It's never gonna go away Never gonna feel the same Runaway boy it's hurting Nothing compares oh nothing compares to this Take me back to the old days when you held my hands and wrists And I know, I know, I know it makes no sense Oh nothing compares oh nothing compares to this Take me all back to where we begin When you were my father and I was just your kid There was no sinister in the bubble I was in In my heart and in your eyes I'm still your friend oh It's never gonna go away Never gonna feel the same Block it out close the curtains It's never gonna go away Never gonna feel the same Runaway boy it's hurting Nothing compares, nothing compares to this Take me back to the old days when you held my hands and wrists And I know, I know, I know it makes no sense Nothing compares oh nothing compares to this No love gained, no love lost, write me off, write me off No love gained, no love lost, write me off, write me off And it's hard And it's hard
