[Verse 1]
It takes a little time to focus
It takes a little while to realise
The darkness is at your disposal
The pain that I feel will soon subside
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hope I'm the best I can 'cause I'm trying all the time
Oh, I'm searching for a feeling and don't know why
I'll jump up
Now I'm ready to get right back up off the shelf
And I'll say it with some meaning
Oh, I'lI say it with my chest
[Chorus]
And I'll go
Hope's on the horizon
As ready as the morning sun
Is it going? Is it almost gone?
No, it's never really here for long
So come a little closer
And I'll tell you what it is I want
'Cause the moment, it's nearly gone
No, it's never really here for long
[Verse 2]
I've turned in every direction
I know this place 'cause I've lost the faith before
It's time I found the momentum
I'm reaching for change, I'll hold it tight
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hope I'm the best I can 'cause I'm trying all the time
Oh, I'm searching for the feeling and I don't know why
I'II jump up
Now I'm ready to get right back up off the shelf
And I'll say it with some meaning
Oh, I'll say it with my chest
[Chorus]
And I'll go
Hope's on the horizon
As ready as the morning sun
Is it going? Is it almost gone?
No, it's never really here for long
So come a little closer
Let me tell you what it is I want
'Cause the moment, it's nearly gone
No, it's never really here for—
[Bridge]
All that I desire
Heavy on the heart
I've made my mind up
I'll overcome (I'll overcome)
All that I desire
Heavy on the heart
I've made my mind up
I'II overcome
I'II jump up
Now I'm ready to get right back up off the shelf
And I'll say it with some meaning
Oh, I'lI say it with my chest
[Chorus]
And I'll go
Hope's on the horizon
As ready as the morning sun
Is it going? Is it almost gone?
No, it's never really here for long
So come a little closer
Let me tell you what it is I want
'Cause the moment, it's nearly gone
No, it's never really here for long
Never Really Here For Long was written by Daniel McCarthy & Jim Higson.
Never Really Here For Long was produced by Cam Blackwood.
KAWALA released Never Really Here For Long on Fri Mar 04 2022.
It’s ending on a positive note, but ‘Good things never last for long, so enjoy them while you can’ is the message. Enjoy life while you’re able to. It’s quite morbid and quite lovely at the same time.

It’s just enjoying the moment while we’re here. How many people are in a position like we are, doing a dream job, putting out a debut album? We wanted to close the album off with this moment that felt really together and heartwarming—this enthusiastic, upbeat, positive feeling.
We toyed with ‘Never...
