(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
