[Verse 1: Rosanne Cash]
Well, heartache number one was when you left me
I ain't never knew that I could hurt this way
And heartache number two was when you'd come back again
You came back and never meant to stay
[Chorus: Rosanne Cash & Elvis Costello]
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
[Verse 2: Rosanne Cash]
Well, 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
[Chorus: Rosanne Cash & Elvis Costello]
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
The day that I stop counting
That's the day my world will end
