Darlin after you left I got that promotion
They transferred me out to la jolla right on the ocean
And now Im makin more money than I can spend
Ive got a house on the beach and a bunch of new friends
Oh, you oughta hear what they say
Tellin me that Ive got it made
But

Chorus
Ive been better
Yeah, I miss those times when we were still together
Right now lookin back
I dont think the past has ever been this clear
And I realize sittin here, as I write this letter
Oh, Ive been better

Ive been seein a girl that I met out in spring valley
Shes havin the time of her life, least thats what she tells me
She says its love and to tell you the truth
Ive tried my best to feel that way too
Oh, but I always realize
When I look into her eyes
That

Chorus

Oh, Ive been better
