Waylon Jennings - Heartaches By The Number Lyrics
(Harlan Howard)Heartache number one was when you left meI never knew that I could hurt this wayHeartache number two was when you came back againYou came back but never meant to stay.I've got heartaches by the numbers, troubles by the scoreEvery day you love me less, each day I love you moreI've got heartaches by the numbers, a love that I can't winBut the day that I stop counting that's the day my world will end.--- Instrumental ---Heartache number three was when you called meYou said that you were coming back to stayWith hopeful heart I waited for your knock on my doorI waited but you must have lost your way.I've got heartaches by the numbers, troubles by the scoreEvery day you love me less, each day I love you moreI've got heartaches by the numbers, a love that I can't winBut the day that I stop counting that's the day my world will end...
