Jim Reeves - I'm Gettin' Better lyrics

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
