Heartaches by the Number
The Commonwealth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Troubles by the score
Every day you love me less
Each day I love you more
Now I've got heartaches by the numbers
A love that I can′t win
But the day that I stop countin'
That's the day my world will end
Oh, the day that I stop counting
That′s the day my world will end
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
Now I′ve got heartaches by the numbers
Troubles by the score
Every day you love me less
Each day I love you more
Now I've got heartaches by the numbers
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 home to stay
With hoping 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 numbers
Troubles by the score
Every day you love me less
Each day I love you more
Now I've got heartaches by the numbers
A love that I can′t win
But the day that I stop countin'
That's the day my world will end
Oh, the day that I stop counting
That′s the day my world will end

An absolute classic song. I enjoy that the audio is slightly delayed a second time, very accurate to how bad music usually sounds over P.A systems. I respect sacrificing the listenability for authenticity.

@Grane is here have to. Not much else you can do. Stuff like that's always temporary, it's never permanent. Found myself in similar situations throughout the years but here in my 33rd year, I learned that's what it all is, temporary. You'll figure it out, you always do.
