Jan Howard Heartaches By The Number
(Heartaches by the number heartache number one two three)
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 but never meant to stay
Now I've got heartaches by the number troubles by the score
Every day you'd love me less each day I love you more
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
You said you were coming back to stay
With hopeful heart I waited for your knock on the door
I waited but you must lost your way
Now I've got heartaches by the number troubles by the score
Every day you'd love me less each day I love you more
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
