Artist/Band: Mel Tillis
Lyrics for Song: Heartaches By the Number
Lyrics for Album: Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 [Kapp] [1971]



(Harlan Howard)



Heartache number one was when you left me

I never knew that I could hurt this way

And heartache number two was when you came back again

You came back and never meant to stay.



Now I've got heartaches by the number, troubles by the score

Every day 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 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.



Now I've got heartaches by the number, troubles by the score

Every day 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.



But the day that I stop counting, that's the day my world will end...
