I walked by the river
Where we said good-bye,
Thought of your kisses,
And didn't even cry
I'm gettin' better, I'm gettin' better.
I talked with an old friend,
he asked about you.
I managed to tell him
With just a tear or two.
I'm gettin' better, I'm gettin' better.
I know I'll never be the same
I was standin' too close to the flame.
But it doesn't hurt so much
To hear your name.
I think I'll make it I'm gettin' better.
