LYRICS
My Heart Beats for You (featuring David Archuleta)
I will not forget the day I met you
Broken down inside you walked my way
Like an angel in the night
You filled me with light on that first day, oooh
But I’m not the man that you once met
The day you stole my heart I was born again
And I’ll live for you until my life is through
My heart, it beats for you.

chorus
My heart it beats for you
My heart it beats for you
My heart it beats for you
My heart it beats for you

The way you’ve learned to love me
can’t be easy
Oh, I’m not the man you married years ago
But somehow you helped me see
to trust God much more than me
Feels like breathing, like letting go

I’m not the man that you once met
The day you stole my heart I was born again
and I’ll live for you until my life is through
my heart, it beats for you!

chorus

bridge
I had all but thought my life was over
looking at the years and what they gave
I was stuck in a place
no way to escape
trapped by my shame

cause I’m not the man that you once met
the day you stole my heart I was born again
and I live for you until my life is through
my heart, it beats for you!

chorus

David Archuleta became a star when he was just 16 years old. In 2008, more than 30 million television viewers fell in love with his angelic voice and their 44 million votes made him runner-up in Season 7 of ‘American Idol.’

Soon after, David had his first single, ‘Crush’ debut at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart the week of its release. According to Nielsen SoundScan, the track sold 166,000 downloads that first week in the U.S. and subsequently more than 1.92 million digital copies to become double platinum. Three months later, David’s self-titled album, ‘David Archuleta,’ went gold, selling more than 750,000 copies in the U.S., and more than 900,000 copies worldwide.

With a faithful social media following (3.5 million Facebook followers, 1.3 million on Twitter and over 290K on Instagram), David has toured all over the U.S., Canada, Asia and even performed in the Middle East for the U.S. troops. In 2017, he relocated to Nashville and released his seventh album ‘Postcards In The Sky’ featuring all original songs that he had a hand in writing. David says it was an album of finding his own voice and what mattered most to him, and would begin shaping the music to come.

After a 2nd Christmas album release in 2018 with ‘Winter in the Air,’ David has started working on his 9th project for 2020. “There has been a movement with understanding oneself, going to therapy. I’ve been one of those people on that train and been discovering a lot about why I have these battles in my head, and how to separate myself from the negativity that can flood the mind a lot. I wanted to write about those battles, and I’ve been determined to show that we can win when the negativity and anxiety starts telling us we’re not good enough and can’t get through it. I’m determined to walk people through with me to prove we can be the victors of our minds, and that worrying paralyzing thoughts aren’t what define us, though I will say they can help us to become stronger by fighting forward.”

There is no other voice like David Archuleta's on this planet. No one can touch it. Beautiful.

[casandralynkerr]

David's voice is so pure. He will forever be my favorite artist. His songs have gotten me through some rough times. He is even better live! Can't wait to see him in concert again!

[petrinaponniah]

David is so gorgeous on the inside out in this video. I deeply admire David's on-spot facial expressions and the compassionate emotional depth he puts into his singing. In short, I adore everything about him.

Maybe it's just me, but it seems the most beautiful songs in the world are the one's that could be speaking to one's spouse, or to God. Perhaps because He is the bridegroom, and we are learning devotion from Him. Paul Cardall and David are both dear to my heart, and it's cool to see them work together. This song is beautiful! The music feels like flying! Like soul - flight!

[ouraniafielding]

I hope you find that "someone" for you (if you haven't already!) You deserve this kind of happiness!

No One Can Do It Better! MY FAVORITE EVER!! DAVID ARCHULLETA!!

[patrickriccio]

David Archuleta is at his best I think when he sings spiritual songs. His most wonderful performance was his Christmas concert with the Mormon Tabernacle choir a couple of years ago. So emotionally stirring. I listen to it actually all year round.

My mother just told me this morning about Paul Cardall - what a treat to find a new song with David Archuleta. I have a feeling Paul is about to become one of my favorite musicians. Thanks for the music, you two.
