Twin Cities Sunrise 2 (version 2)

Verse 1

Twin Cities Sunrise – Twin Cities Sunrise

(Sunrise over the Mississippi River)

I wake up before dawn to a city still asleep

The stars are fading fast through my blinds on the street

I throw on a jacket and head down to the riverbank

Watch the sky turn pink where the sky and water blend

Every sunrise here feels like it's mine alone

Like I'm the only one who sees this glow

(Crescent moon over the Twin Cities)

Pre-Chorus

And when the world finally wakes, I'll be right on time

Watching the city come alive in a brand new light

Chorus

Twin Cities Sunrise

You're not just the town you call home

It's the whole wide world spinning slow as it glows

Every sunrise here feels like a brand new start

Right here between these two cities and my heart

Verse 2

Now the streetlights fade, and the sun creeps up high

The whole city stirs from its quiet, gentle sigh

I drive down Grand with the radio on low

Watching Minneapolis turn gold where the sky turns slow

Every sunrise feels like a chance to rewrite

Who I am, what this city means in my life tonight

Pre-Chorus

And when the world finally wakes, I'll be right on time

Watching the city come alive in a brand new light

Chorus

Twin Cities Sunrise

You're not just the town you call home

It's the whole wide world spinning slow as it glows

Every sunrise here feels like a brand new start

Right here between these two cities and my heart

Bridge

Maybe I don't need to chase the sun anymore

Because every day here is a brand new shore

So I'll stand right here with this city by my side

Where the Mississippi meets the morning light

Chorus

Twin Cities Sunrise

You're not just the town you call home

It's the whole wide world spinning slow as it glows

Every sunrise here feels like a brand new start

Right here between these two cities and my heart
