Heartaches By The Number Lyrics - Elvis Costello

Heartache number one was when you left me 

I never knew that I could hurt this way 

Heartache number two was when you come back again 

You came back and never meant to stay 

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

Everyday 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 

Heartache number three was when you called me 

And said that 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

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

The day that I stop counting that's the day my world will end
