Last night on Bringing Up Bates, Evan Stewart asked Carlin Bates to begin an official courtship. Leading up to the big moment, he took her on an elaborate scavenger hunt.
The last stop was Norris Dam, Carlin's "happy place," where Evan performed a love song he had written, called "You Hold the Key." He followed it up with a question: "So I guess what I'm trying to ask you is, 'Will you accept the gift of my heart?'"
That love song is available for purchase on iTunes, Amazon, and CD Baby.
"Because it's like I'm staring at the stars up in outer space when I'm looking at those eyes on your pretty face. Ya you are my dream come true, so I wrote this song to prove that I love you...And out of this whole world, I don't want another girl. See, I've got my heart locked away, baby, and you hold the key."
