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