Leon Russell - Heartaches by the Number Lyrics

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
Everyday 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 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
Everyday 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
