Chasing Totality

(Intro) (Verse 1) We packed our bags and headed out before dawn, Austin in the rearview, as the night carried on. Chasing the shadow, under Texas skies. We headed out for that cosmic prize. (Pre-Chorus) We drove for hours, chasing the sun, Eclipse on our minds, together as one. (Chorus) Under the shadow, we came so far, Chasing totality, following a star. Though clouds may loom, and moments are few, In that brief eclipse, the world felt new. (Verse 2) Last minute clouds, rolling in like fate, In that brief darkness, we'll find something great. There it was, a sliver, then the grand display, Totality in glory, but a cloud swept it away. (Chorus) Under the shadow, we came so far, Chasing totality, following a star. Though clouds may loom, and moments are few, In that brief eclipse, the world felt new. (Bridge) In that brief moment, the sky turned night, A fleeting dance of dark and light. We laughed, we hoped, we dared to dream, Under the sky where the eclipse gleamed. (Chorus) Under the shadow, we came so far, Chasing totality, following a star. Though clouds may loom, and moments are few, In that brief eclipse, the world felt new. (Outro) In the heart of Texas, with friends so dear, We found our minute, and we'll hold it near. Though the journey was long, and the time was slight, It was worth every second, for that minute of midnight. (Fadeout)
