Testimony of Chase Caffey

Lyrics:

First met her
Under January weather
Grey tee, skinny jeans
Burgundy Sweater

Blue eyes
Never could forget em’
Tried to play to it cool
Tryin’a keep my act together
(Hold up)

How did something so pure
End up here?
Am i outta my league
Or is this my year?

….

Let me explain the whole scenario
15 people driving all across America 6 weeks in an all white street van telling college students bout a man named Jesus

Ya boy was with in the band
Had a stingray bass I was goin Supersand (*Goku*)
I was going with the plan
Till met up with some fam for some din.

That’s when I saw her for the first time
Ordered me some brisket and she ask if she could try a bite

On the inside I was all excited
But on the outside had to play quiet
(Shh)

Now I’m a Mississippi boy
Born and Raised
Sharing what I have with other people is second nature

Cut her off a slice
“no big deal”
But inside my head I’m thinking
Lord is this your will?

…..

First met her
Under January weather
Grey tee, skinny jeans
Burgundy Sweater

Blue eyes
Never could forget em’
Tried to play to it cool
Tryin’a keep my act together
(Hold up)

How did something so pure
End up here?
Am i outta my league
Or is this my year?

……

6 states
11 different colleges
Tryna spread the truth
To a bunch a young college kids

Lookin for some people
We can invite to a worship night
Lotta people came
Lotta people gave their life

this a beautiful thing
I’m feeling on fire
And I’m in love with my team

We’ll specifically
Speaking
I had feelings
For just one person on the team

I had this thing called “Tour Eyes”
when you Fall for a girl
on your team
No surprise

But I can’t come on too strong
Trying to drop hints
not bombs

Seeing the way
She loved every day
Feeling sick? she would pray
need some time? she would stay

Man
She’s really in one in a million
I should tell her how I feel (*oh yes*)
Now that Tours ending (*oh no*)

So I did just that
Took her to my truck and
We sat on the back

Told her that I liked her and I wanted her to know
Plus we all packing up
Going home

I was heading back Mississippi
She was flying back to Oregon
But
We could do the distance

She never said a word
Didn’t know if I was heard
was I coming off absurd
Please say something!

She opened her mouth
I wasn’t really feeling what was coming out…

She said thanks for sharing with me how you feel
But I gotta keep it real

Your a nice guy granted but
Honestly I’m not romantically attracted but
If the lord change my heart
I’ll let you know
We said goodbye and I hit the road (dang…)

First met her
Under January weather
Grey tee, skinny jeans
Burgundy Sweater

Blue eyes
Never could forget em’
Tried to play to it cool
Tryin’a keep my act together
(Hold up)

How did something so pure
End up here?
Am i outta my league
Or is this my year?

Father god
I need to come before you
I got a couple questions that
Pertain to your daughter *like*

Am I wrong for thinking she could be
My wife
Deep down feel like I’ve known her
All my life

In reality we barely even know each
Other
But in my dreams every night it’s a different story *why*

Holy Spirit
Are you really moving?
Firm in the word
Is a woman worth pursuing (*preach*)

I only want to obedient
Open her eyes let her see me
as I really am

a gentlemen
Underneath
being formed
Soft wet clay
And the potter is the lord

I guess the point point I’m making is…
She’s a princess and I’m a prince
Glass slipper on the ground
Does it fit?
Royal bloodlines
To me it makes sense

First met her
Under January weather
Grey tee, skinny jeans
Burgundy Sweater

Blue eyes
Never could forget em’
Tried to play to it cool
Tryin’a keep my act together
(Hold up)

How did something so pure
End up here?
Am i outta my league
Or is this my year?

Couple days go by and
I don’t hear a thing
Waiting by the phone
Why won’t it ring

1 week
2 weeks
3 weeks
4 weeks
Feeling weak
Think it’s time to
Set her free

I got down on my knees
Tears my eyes
I could really use some peace

Lord she’s all yours
Always has and will be
I’m ready to move on
Use me

Like clock work
I hear my phone ring
Guess who
Is this really happening

No hesitation
We started conversation
I can Barely hold phone my
Hands sweaty heart racing

I’m Overjoyed
But I gotta to ask
Why you calling me after all the time that’s past? (*why*)

She paused
Then said real cute
I feel like the lords opened up my eyes to you

(Hallelujah)

Everybody likes the ending of a good fairy tale
When guy gets the girl
They get married on a hill
And they ride off in the sunset
Takin on the world

Lookin back Our story’s so blessed
We fell in love
Then we made a covenant
He made a way and
All that I can say is
Jesus heard my cry when I was in the wilderness
