We're Almost There Lyrics
No matter how hard
The task may seem
Don't give up our plans
Don't give up our dreams
No broken bridges
Can turn us around
Cause what we're searchin' for
Will soon be found
Refrain
Cause we're almost there
Just one more step
(Cause we're almost there)
Just one more step
(Just one more step)
Don't give up
'Cause we're almost all almost there
('Cause we're almost there)
(Look at the lovers)
Look at the lonely lovers
That didn't make it
Life's long hard climb
(Life's long hard climb)
They just couldn't take it
(They just couldn't take it)
Don't let it happen to me and you
Hold on together, darlin'
We'll make it through
Darlin', keep on reachin' out for me
Keep on reachin, do it for me
Do it for me, cause baby
Refrain
('Cause we're almost there)
(We're almost there)
('Cause we're almost there)
We're so close
I can taste it
A life so sweet
Can't afford to waste it
(Can't afford to waste it)
Need to feel your hand
Slippin' from mine?
Just hold on tighter now, darlin'
Keep on tryin'
Refrain
Baby, do it for me, do it do it baby
(Cause we're almost there)
Just one more step
(We're almost there)
Don't give up
(Cause we're almost there)
Just one more step
Baby baby, don't give up
('Cause we're almost there)
Keep on, keep on
(We're almost there)
Just one more step
('Cause we're almost there)
Cause we're almost there
(Instrumental)
Juste one more step
Cause we're almost there
We've come to far
To turn around
Ooh!!
Keep on reachin'
For higher ground
We've had our ups and we've had our downs
Let nothin' in the world darlin'
Turn us around
Cause we're almost there
We're almost there
We're almost there
Everything we're lookin' for
We're almost there
Keep on reachin' out for me
Cause we're almost there darlin'
We're almost there
We're almost there darlin'
We're almost there
We're almost there
Ah we're almost there
The task may seem
Don't give up our plans
Don't give up our dreams
Can turn us around
Cause what we're searchin' for
Will soon be found
Cause we're almost there
Just one more step
(Cause we're almost there)
Just one more step
(Just one more step)
Don't give up
'Cause we're almost all almost there
('Cause we're almost there)
Look at the lonely lovers
That didn't make it
Life's long hard climb
(Life's long hard climb)
They just couldn't take it
(They just couldn't take it)
Hold on together, darlin'
We'll make it through
Keep on reachin, do it for me
Do it for me, cause baby
('Cause we're almost there)
(We're almost there)
('Cause we're almost there)
I can taste it
A life so sweet
Can't afford to waste it
(Can't afford to waste it)
Slippin' from mine?
Just hold on tighter now, darlin'
Keep on tryin'
Baby, do it for me, do it do it baby
(Cause we're almost there)
Just one more step
(We're almost there)
Don't give up
(Cause we're almost there)
Just one more step
('Cause we're almost there)
Keep on, keep on
(We're almost there)
Just one more step
('Cause we're almost there)
Cause we're almost there
Cause we're almost there
We've come to far
To turn around
For higher ground
We've had our ups and we've had our downs
Let nothin' in the world darlin'
Turn us around
We're almost there
We're almost there
We're almost there
Keep on reachin' out for me
We're almost there
We're almost there darlin'
We're almost there
We're almost there

Oh wow, this was from Forever, Michael. That album is one of the most underrated ever. It was his last on Motown as a solo artist and it had some pretty amazing songs on it that are rarely heard. This is one of them. It's been sampled before and I think that's about it.
Anyway, this song is kind of self explanatory but I'll try anyway.
His relationship with his partner is getting rough and they feel like its in trouble. Apparently, the other person in the relationship feels like they should just break it off and he's basically telling her that relationships will have times where they are hard but that shouldn't be a reason to give up. He's telling her that they've "come too far" to give up now and the bad times are almost over.
