(H. Howard)



Heartache Number One was when you left me

I never knew that I could hurt this way

Heartache Number Two was when you came back again

You came back and never meant to stay



Chorus:

Now I've got heartaches by the number

Troubles by the score

Every day you love me less

Each day I love you more



Now I've got heartaches by the number

A love that I can't win

But the day that I stop counting

That's the day my world will end



Heartache Number Three was when you called me

And told me you was coming home to stay

With hoping heart I waited for your knock on the door

I waited but you must have lost your way



Chorus:

Now I've got heartaches by the number

Troubles by the score

Every day you love me less

Each day I love you more



Now I've got heartaches by the number

A love that I can't win

But the day that I stop counting

That's the day my world will end



Ah, the day that I stop counting

That's the day my world will end
