LYRICS=(Intro) \\
I wonder where we’re headed now\\
when all that’s left are our memories of crowds\\
hoping life won’t take us too far\\
when we’ve spent so long cultivating our hearts\\
\\
so when you look back at what we’ve left behind\\
Remember how it felt for a thousand hearts to beat in time\\
we traveled dirt, we paved our roads, but now it’s time to let this go\\
just don’t forget how it felt when this was home\\
\\
(Verse 1)\\
you fulfilled a change in me\\
that started a while ago\\
eight years is a long long time\\
so it’s hard to let this go\\
life has a way of pushing us\\
to newer things\\
so I guess we just have to trust\\
that we’ll have our memories\\
\\
(Prechorus 1)\\
The ride is nearly over\\
but our hearts will always blend\\
The ride is nearly over \\
but feelings don’t forget\\
\\
and if this fades from our heads\\
at least you’re always in my chest\\
the ride is slowing down\\
but does it ever really end?\\
\\
(Chorus 1)\\
I’m coming over\\
let’s catch up, reminisce\\
if these days are really over\\
there’s no harm in it\\
\\
let’s head back again\\
oh, just one more time\\
you’ve been such good friends\\
there’s no harm, we’ll be alright\\
\\
(Verse 2)\\
we came from irony\\
but instead found in us honesty\\
and honestly, this magic and\\
laughter can\\
kindly help us\\
find the home we’ll never leave\\
and even if we have space to breathe\\
loyalty will generously\\
point us to where we need to be\\
\\
(Prechorus 2)\\
the sun and moon\\
and stars themselves\\
will soon find that\\
there’s nothing else\\
that’s better than\\
what magic can\\
bring a heart\\
and I can tell\\
the people that stood up with me\\
will help the world see differently\\
just like the way it was always meant to be\\
\\
(Chorus 2)\\
I’m coming over\\
let’s catch up, reminisce\\
if these days are really over\\
there’s no harm in it\\
\\
let’s head back again\\
oh, just one more time\\
you’ve been such good friends\\
there’s no harm, we’ll be alright\\
\\
(Bridge)\\
We’ll find a home again\\
We’ll find new friends\\
we’ll find a home again\\
we’ll find new friends\\
We’ll find a home again\\
We’ll find new friends\\
we’ll find a home again\\
we’ll find\\
\\
(because I’m a narcissist and have to throw back to my first pony song)\\
but until then I guess I’m just waiting, just waiting\\
I promise someday that I’ll come home\\
but even so, I know I’m not alone\\
so though we take more steps from where we came\\
I guess I’ll wait\\
hold on to the memories you have left\\
I swear I won’t forget\\
\\
(Chorus 3)\\
I’m coming over\\
let’s catch up, reminisce\\
if these days are really over\\
there’s no harm in it\\
\\
let’s head back again\\
oh, just one more time\\
you’ve been such good friends\\
there’s no harm, we’ll be alright\\
\\
(Chorus 4)\\
I’m coming over\\
to check things off our list\\
if these days are almost over\\
let’s make the most of it\\
\\
let’s head back again\\
oh, just one more time\\
you’ve been such good friends\\
we’ve come too far to cry tonight\\
wherever we are, we’ll be alright

This was actually supposed to be posted yesterday to coincide with the 8 year anniversary of Friendship is Magic, but my senior project at college got in the way, haha. Hope you all enjoy this, since it’s for you guys. This show about talking technicolored magic horses has meant a lot to me, and so has this fan base. :) Thanks for the good times! <3
Fun fact, I’ve actually had this song in various forms floating around my head and my computer for so long that I had to change the lyrics from referencing “seven years” to referencing “eight years,” hah. The track and lyrics and even the background vocals have been basically done for more than a year now but I just never recorded the lead vocals.
