I was driving in the car Saturday and was listening to my iTunes. I had it set for shuffle. Suddenly, I was listening to a song I had forgotten about.
I listened carefully to the lyrics and…SURPRISE … I thought of Clay Aiken. The following are the lyrics at the end of the song.
One Heartbeat At A Time
…
And you, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
Making history with every touch and every smile
Oh, you, you may not see it now
But I believe that time will tell
How you, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
~~~~~
You’re beautiful
You’re beautiful
How you’re changing the world
You’re changing the world
~~~~~
You, you are changing the world
One little heartbeat at a time
~~~~~

Do you think of Clay when you read the lyrics?
Those lyrics were spot on musicfan! He's doing what he believes in and I couldn't be happier! Well, I am missing that glorious singing voice, but still.
Looking forward to the Gala and hoping he sings a few songs for us!
Those are great lyrics. Yrs, I really think Clay is trying to make a difference. One heartbeat at a time.
Clay is a wonderful caring man, love him, wish I could go to the Gala but I will donate to his worthy cause. Love the pics. Thanks Musicfan.
When I saw the first photo, I honestly thought it was a Norman Rockwell painting. I won't be at the Gala but I did contribute to NIP last month. Yes, those lyrics fit Clay to a 'T'.
