ABOUT THE SONG
Almost Forever is a love song for the ones that got away—not because the love wasn’t real, but because the timing wasn’t right. It’s about soulmates who crossed paths in the wrong chapter of their lives. With rich harmonies and aching lyrics, this duet captures the bittersweet beauty of knowing someone could’ve been your always—if only the stars had aligned.
WHY IT MATTERS
Some love stories don’t end—they just drift. Almost Forever speaks to the heartbreak of missed timing and lingering connection. For listeners who believe in soulmates, fate, and what could’ve been, this track is a slow dance in the middle of nowhere that still echoes long after it ends.

Timeless Country Ballad / Emotional Americana
[Verse 1 – Male]
I met you in the in-between, a heartbeat out of place
You smiled like the sun, but the storm had already chased
We talked like we’d been waiting since before the world began
But time had other plans for where the hourglass would land
[Verse 2 – Female]
You were all I ever wanted—just a little too soon
I had a ring, you had a road, and both left little room
But every laugh still lingers, like a song I half forgot
You're the almost I remember more than all the ones I got
[Chorus – Duet Harmony]
We had the stars, just not the night
The fire burned, but not quite right
In another life, I think we made it
No hard words, no need to fake it
Some people are forever… just not forever now
We were almost forever—then life showed us how
[Verse 3 – Male]
I still hear your goodbye echo every New Year’s Eve
In the silence after fireworks, you’re the breath I never breathe
We lost to circumstance, not love, and that’s the cruelest kind
You were written in my story—just a chapter out of line
[Verse 4 – Female]
I don’t wear your memory like pain—I wear it soft and worn
Like an old denim jacket from the night we laughed ‘til morn
I’ve moved on, you’ve moved on, but I still trace your name
In the frost on my window when it whispers just the same
[Chorus – Duet Harmony, Repeat]
We had the stars, just not the night
The fire burned, but not quite right
In another life, I think we made it
No hard words, no need to fake it
Some people are forever… just not forever now
We were almost forever—then life showed us how
[Bridge – Shared lines]
What we were… still lives in “could’ve been”
We don’t need a second chance—we just needed then
[Final Chorus – Duet Full Harmony, Soft Fade]
We had the stars, just not the night
The fire burned, but not quite right
Maybe fate got tired of waiting
Maybe time just hated waiting
Some people are forever…
Even if not here, not now—
We were almost forever… and that’s enough somehow
