David MacKenzie

David MacKenzie is a singer-songwriter based out of Victoria, BC. While still living on the east coast, David released his debut EP, as well as 6 other singles, between 2019 and 2020, and 2021 shows no signs of slowing down! With multiple projects already in the works, it’s set to be another full year of music! As a listener, David loves honesty and authenticity in lyrics, and he strives for the same in his own music. A lot of David’s early music influences were Christian worship artists, which has had a heavy influence on the very melody-driven, lyric-first writing style that he’s come to have. Other artists that David has been compared to (to varying degrees, for varying reasons) are: Ben Rector, Anson Seabra, Jake Scott, Gavin James, Niall Horan, and Troy Bolton.

You first caught my eye at 16
I’d never seen a beauty quite like yours
Before I knew it we had history
I never could have dreamed what was in store

Our story moved forward like a fairytale
A dream that’s come to life
Our love was enough to take us anywhere
At least for a while
But time’s counting the hours even if we’re not
And midnight’s coming fast
We wrote our story like every day was our last

By 18 you had my whole heart
We swore we’d take the world, and then we did
Nothing they could say was gonna stop us
'Cause we were young, and knew that we could win
We flew round and round and we never touched the ground
What we had was magic, we both knew without a doubt
By 18 you had my whole heart
And we could never lose the love we found

Our story moved forward like a fairytale
A dream that’s come to life
Our love was enough to take us anywhere
At least for a while
But time’s counting the hours even if we’re not
And midnight’s coming fast
We wrote our story like every day was our last

At 22 things sure look different
I know I’ve changed, and maybe so have you
What we need seems to be missing
I hate to say there’s not much left to do
But when I think of you and the memories we made
I’ll remember all the good times with a smile on my face
At 22 things sure look different
I never thought we’d have to walk away
