"I'll Feel a Whole Lot Better" is a song by the Los Angeles #folkRock band the Byrds, first released in June 1965 on the #Bside of the band's second single, "#AllIReallyWantToDo". Despite initially being released as a B-side, the song managed to chart in its own right in the U.S., just outside the Billboard Hot 100. It was also included on the Byrds' debut album, #MrTambourineMan and #TheByrdsGreatestHits. The song was written by band member #GeneClark.

#GeneClark – No Other (1974). Former Byrd Gene Clark made this sprawling masterpiece after earlier solo LPs failed to take flight. The country-tinged “Life’s Greatest Fool” is a conventional opener, before Clark and a battalion of LA session folk turn cosmic on “Silver Raven.” Later, “Strength of Strings” and “Some Misunderstanding” present epics of breathtaking emotion that, criminally, fell on deaf ears after David Geffen saw the six-figure studio bill.

Daytime just makes me feel lonely
At night I can only dream about you
Girl, you're on my mind nearly all of the time
It's so hard bein' here without you
Words in my head keep repeating
Things that you said when I was with you
And I wonder, is it true?
Do you feel the same way too?
It's so hard bein' here without you
Bein' here without you
