Background
Izibor noted that "From My Heart to Yours" was "one of the easiest songs" she wrote. She explained the song, saying: "It just kinda came together really easily. It's about how you feel when you are in love and is a reflection of the whole experience." The song was used in the television series Grey's Anatomy.
Reception
