Ispirato allo spettacolare scenario dell'eclisse solare del 12 agosto 2016 , osservato a Porto Ferro (Alghero) -SardegnaSLOWING DOWN
[Verse 1]
August evening, fading gold,
You took my hand, the air turned cold.
The moon moved in, the daylight thinned,
We heard the leaves dance in the wind.
[Chorus]
Slowing down, slowing down,
Let that bass line roll around.
Nothing more to chase right now,
Stay beside me, we’re slowing down.
[Verse 2]
The man next door put down his phone,
Dragged out a chair, said, “Take one home.”
We watched the shadows cross the street,
Forgot the hours, found the beat.
[Chorus]
Slowing down, slowing down,
Let that bass line roll around.
Nothing more to chase right now,
Stay beside me, we’re slowing down.
[Verse 3]
Weeks have passed, the rush is back,
Morning trains along the track.
That borrowed chair is by my door,
I sit a little longer than before.
[Final Chorus]
Slowing down, slowing down,
Let that bass line roll around.
Sun came back, but we know how
To keep a little slowing down.
