A love story that began thirty years ago with a simple moment — sitting down on a cooler at the flats — and blossomed into a lifetime of family, devotion, and unwavering partnership. This song is a heartfelt tribute from a husband to the woman whose smile still lights up every room, who gave him two beautiful daughters, a home full of love, and the courage to become the man he is today. It's a celebration of choosing each other every single day and knowing, without a doubt, that he'd do it all over again.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some moments change your whole life through A summer evening, nothing planned Just a cooler at the flats, the sky turned blue And something told me where I stand I saw that smile light up the night And I knew right then, I'd found my ride or die [Chorus] Here's to the woman who made me whole Who gave me roots and gave me soul Thirty years and I'd do it all again Every mile, every road, every now and then You're the reason I'm the man I am And I'll love you longer than forever can [Verse 2] You gave me two beautiful girls You gave this house a heart, a home Kimmi, you gave me the whole wide world And a life I'm proud to call my own You stood beside me, strong and true Every single day, I'm better 'cause of you [Chorus] Here's to the woman who made me whole Who gave me roots and gave me soul Thirty years and I'd do it all again Every mile, every road, every now and then You're the reason I'm the man I am And I'll love you longer than forever can [Bridge] If I could go back in time I'd sit right down on that cooler one more time I'd take your hand and say, girl, hold on tight This is gonna be one beautiful ride [Verse 3] Your courage, Kimmi, Lord, it pulls me through That smile still lights up every room I'm so proud of all you are and all you do Thirty years, and darling, I'm still over the moon My ride or die, my partner, my best friend Kimmi, I would choose you all over again [Chorus] Here's to the woman who made me whole Who gave me roots and gave me soul Thirty years and I'd do it all again Every mile, every road, every now and then You're the reason I'm the man I am And I'll love you longer than forever can [Outro] So here's to you, my beautiful wife Thank God I sat down that night You are my journey, you are my life
