One click I have found was the battery (normally - but not always with flashing headlights). Click click was the starter solenoid.
When it first happened, it would be intermittent and then would eventually start.
Try it with a jump start, and if it still clicks that would confirm, at least it wasnt the battery, and almost certainly the starter. It could also be the starter cables. Disconnect the battery and loosen, clean and retighten.
