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 From: "Roy T O'Conner"
