Love Songs in the Key of FiM: Complete! · 5:29pm Jun 17th, 2014

Some of you who've known me a while may remember my ongoing project to write and record a love song for every inter-Mane Six ship. Today, after almost two and a half years, I've finally finished. Here are the last three songs that complete the album. (As always, the entire album can be found on my SoundCloud page.)

"The Best Scare I've Ever Had" (TwiShy)
(YouTube) (SoundCloud)

"Everything's All Right" (RariPie)
(YouTube) (SoundCloud)

"This Is Not the End (It's Only Beginning)" (Omniship)
(YouTube) (SoundCloud)

"The Best Scare I've Ever Had" lyrics:

I wish I knew
Just what to say to you
But I don’t
But I don’t
I wish I knew
Just what to say to you
But I don’t
But I don’t
But if I did
Here’s what I might say
The next time
You glanced my way
I’d tell you that
You scare me so bad
And it’s the best scare
I’ve ever had
You always see
A way to believe in me
Even when I don’t
Even when I don’t
You always see
A way to believe in me
Even when I won’t
Even when I won’t
Even when I hid
That phoenix from view
You helped me out
And you got us through
And when you’re near
I always want to say
That you scare me in
The best possible way
I wish I had
The nerve to come clean
To look you in the eye
And say what I mean
I’d tell you that
You scare me so bad
And it’s the best scare
I’ve ever had.

"Everything's All Right" lyrics:

I’ve burned all my bridges
I’ve drank all my wine
I’ve cut out my own heart
And I’ve set it on the line
A laugh catches in my throat
When I say I’m doing just fine
While the tears in my eyes
Confess that I’m lying
But that’s when you come to me
With a smile so large and bright
You take me into your embrace
And you whisper, “Everything’s all right”
And everything’s all right
You never, ever fail
You never let me down
I cannot help but laugh
Whenever you’re around
And should I take a stumble
You pick me off the ground
Once I was blind to your charms
Was lost but now I’m found
And now when you come to me
Your laugh so big and bright
I pull you close and
I whisper, “Everything’s all right”
Yes, it’s all right
Princes are overrated
And sonnets are so cliche
I’ll accept nothing less
Than a love limerick a day
And who wants red roses?
I’d rather a pink bouquet
Just one kiss from your lips
Leaves nothing more to say
Because when you come to me
Like a beacon through the night
I feel your shining love and it
Makes everything all right
You make it all right.

"This Is Not the End (It's Only Beginning)" lyrics:

I’m gonna tell you a story
That took place not too long ago
‘Bout a girl who knew it all
Except for what’s most important to know
Until the day she left
For a little backwater town
Just supposed to be a visit
But she stuck around
(I stuck around)
She pushed everyone away
Said she had no need for friends
But five ponies didn’t listen and
Those same five saved her in the end
They became the best of friends
Together they went through it all
And maybe it shouldn’t have surprised her
That she started to fall
(I started to fall)
True as the ages
Faithful as the sun
Giving with abandon
To each and every one
Sweet as the spring rain
Hopeful as the dew
You made me what I am
And I’m so grateful to you
So many memories
Battles fought, battles won
Hugs shared and tears cried
Each and every one
You were there for it all
And beside me you’ve stayed
You’re the answer to a prayer
I didn’t know to pray
And I love you
It hurts, it’s so true
Yes, I love you
Nothing else to do
Because I love you
I’ll shout ‘til I’m blue
That I love you
Yes, I do
I’m gonna tell you a story
‘Bout a girl who’s still growing
With her loved ones there to help
Teach her the things worth knowing
They’re still the best of friends
Together through all this time
And I’m still so grateful that
I’m yours and you are mine
I am yours and you are mine.
