I swear I've drunk enough for both of us tonight
But I'll buy another round before it's closing time
'Cause I know oh oh, baby, I'm getting better
And you know oh oh, maybe I'm feeling better

And if I leave this shitty pub without a trace
My brand of cigarettes will lead you to my place
So who knows oh ohs, maybe I'm feeling better
And you know oh oh, baby, I'm getting better

And I feel alive with you
Baby, I'm getting better
And I feel alive with you
Baby, I'm getting better

I think I've seen enough to keep my big mouth shut
Before you can call me a man
How many songs does it take to understand?

And I feel alive with you
Baby, I'm getting better
And I feel alright with you
Baby, I'm getting there

It's nothing to do with the weather
Now baby I'm getting better

Don't look so down, oh yeah, oh
So maybe I'm feeling better

Now I dream that I'm with you
Baby, I'm getting better
And I feel alive with you
Baby, I'm getting better

Baby, I'm getting better
Baby, I'm getting there

    to me, listening to the song once, i think its about how hes bouncing back from a rough patch in his life, and he's trying to reassure everyone about that

    This song to me is about a guy who has been really unlucky in love over the years, had his heart broken and almost stopped believing in love. Now that he has met a girl and it feels surreal to him and its hard for him to believe that she is interested in him. and now he is getting better :)

    rawwrrr's understanding sounds spot on. Couldn't have said it better myself. I like this song, it's pretty cool and catchy :)

    My Interpretation

    So I recently got into this song very much so, love it!

    To me it strikes me like this... This guy is going through a rough time, maybe due to some girl he'd recently split with. So he's out at a bar drowning his sorrows and during this meets a girl with whom he hits it off with, he's spirits are lifting since he met this girl and they end up hooking up possibly. Then on he cannot get her out of his mind etc...

    But as for when it gets to "i think i've seen enough to keep my big mouth shut", possibly he's now back pursuing the girl he was messed up over "how many songs does it take to understand?", but keeping the fact he'd hooked up with another chick to himself. They might've gotten back on track but still, this awesome chick he'd randomly got involved with will always mean something to him

    That's my thoughts anyways =)
