Buck Owens - Heartaches by the Number lyrics

(Written by Harlan Howard) Heartache numbers one Was when you left me I never knew that I could hurt this way And heartache number two was when You come back again You came back but never meant to stay Chorus: Now I've got heartaches by the number, Troubles by the score Ev'ryday you love me less, Each day I love you more Yes, 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 --- Instrumental --- Heartache number three Was when you called me And said that you were coming Back to stay With hopeful 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 Ev'ryday you love me less, Each day I love you more Yes, 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...
