I'm Getting Better

(Jim Reeves)



I walked by the river

Where we said goodbye,

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...
