Twelve Hours to Minnesota

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some love rolls in like a summer rain Soft on a dusty road Mine showed up with a paintbrush in hand And a laugh I'd never known Painting with a twist, our very first night We colored outside every line [Chorus] Kimberly, you're my new beginning The sunrise after the longest night You give your all and keep on giving And still you hold me tight With that big smile and those loving arms You're the home I'd been missing all along [Verse 2] Then twelve long hours to Minnesota Chasing wiener dogs you dreamed about Truck stop coffee and the radio playing We talked till the stars came out Somewhere on that highway, girl I found the heart of my whole world [Chorus] Kimberly, you're my new beginning The sunrise after the longest night You give your all and keep on giving And still you hold me tight With that big smile and those loving arms You're the home I'd been missing all along [Bridge] You work the hospital through the dark Holding strangers' hands till dawn Then you walk in tired to the bone And somehow your love's still strong [Verse 3] You kiss the kids before you sleep Pour out love you barely have Then wrap me in a hug so deep It heals the hurt from the past We're building something, you and me A family, strong as it can be [Chorus] Kimberly, you're my new beginning The sunrise after the longest night You give your all and keep on giving And still you hold me tight With that big smile and those loving arms You're the home I'd been missing all along [Outro] Through the paint, the miles, the long night shifts I'll be holding you like this My love, my heart, my home
