Almost There
Navigating Love's Turbulence: 'Almost There' by Kyan Palmer
Lyrics
Verse 1
Introduction to the first verse.
Man it’s been a long time
Expressing the feeling of a long passage of time.
Crazy how the time flies
Reflecting on the fast pace of time.
And I’d still do it all again
Willingness to go through experiences again.
Sleeping on the carpet
Recalling a humble or difficult living situation.
Rendezvous in secret
Secret meetings or encounters.
Hit a bump in the road again
Encountering a challenge or obstacle.
Pre
Transition to the pre-chorus.
I don’t feel like myself and
Feeling disconnected from oneself.
You’ve been somebody else
Noticing a change in the partner.
But that’s not fair
Expressing the unfairness of the situation.
Guess we must of lost ourselves somewhere
Speculating on losing one's identity in the relationship.
We’ve been through colder weather
Highlighting past challenges endured together.
Don’t give up on forever
Encouraging not to give up on lasting commitment.
Don’t you dare
Warning not to abandon hope.
I promise we're almost there
Promising that a positive outcome is near.
Hook
Transition to the chorus.
We’re almost there
Reiteration of the nearness of a positive resolution.
We’re almost there
-We’re almost there
-I promise we're almost there
-We’re almost there
Repeating the assurance of being almost there.
We’re almost there
-We’re almost there
-I promise we're almost there
-Verse 2
Introduction to the second verse.
What’s it gonna take to
Pondering what it will take to overcome challenges.
Get us to a break through
Desire for a breakthrough in the relationship.
Cause we been on a different page
Noticing a divergence in perspectives.

Acknowledging the unsustainability of the current path.

If we hold on to each other
Final reassurance of the possibility of making it through.
