I'm Gettin' Better 

 Jim Reeves 

  

 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
