(Garth Brooks)



When loving turns to parting I'm always the first to leave

Cause when it comes to heartaches I'd rather give than receive

I've never cried myself to sleep just praying I'll get through

I've never lost at love not counting you



CHORUS

Not counting you I've never had a heartache

Not counting you I never have been blue

There's no exceptions to the rule

I've never been nobody's fool

I've never lost at love not counting you



I've never got down on my knees and asked the Lord above

If He would only bring to me the one I'm dreaming of

Begging to be taken back and swearing I'd be true

Has never crossed my mind not counting you



CHORUS



There's no exceptions to the rule

I've never been nobody's fool

I've never lost at love not counting you

No, I've never lost at love not counting you
