Lyrics from CD booklet
Who could see and not believe? The heart that beats the wavelength.
And who could say but never do. Things they've said to someone who
Tru all that's been and all will be - so in line so thoughtfully (lessly)
In tune with you. So in time for me. New thoughts arrive. So in time for me.
Who can count the time I'm beatin... with my hands?
Who can stop the smoke from breathin... in my head?
Words will come and words will go. Make believe and overthrow.
Just believe and you can do.
You know my heart - it beats for you.
It Beats4U - so in time we beat. Your thoughts align - so in time with me.

Length of album version: 3:46

Band comment
"Jim brought the guitar batter in first to Patrick and me who cooked up the drum ‘n bass together Carl ‘n Bo then tended the oven, eagerly waiting to add the frosting and tasty fruits. Is it time for cake?"
- My Morning Jacket, when asked about the writing process behind It Beats 4 U and if the guitar or drum part came first.
