Sparklehoof and the Heartbloom Adventure

Lyrics

Lyra takes a hand and Sparklehoof takes flight, Into the Whispering Woods toward the fading light. The ferns are drooping low, the colors turning gray, But kindness in their hearts will guide them on their way.

Oh, feel the heartbeat rising, a pulse within the trees, Carried on the starlight and whispered on the breeze. With a tiny act of courage and a patience deep and true, They’re bringing back the magic, making everything new.

A shadow in the clearing, a cold and lonely blur, Was misunderstood and hungry for the light that Lyra and Sparklehoof stir. They offered up the Heartbloom, radiant and bright, And turned the Shadow-Snatcher back into the light.

Oh, see the heartbeat rising, a pulse within the trees, Carried on the starlight and whispered on the breeze. With a tiny act of courage and a patience deep and true, They brought the magic home, making everything new.

The Whispering Woods are singing once more, With more magic than they had ever before. Kindness is power, and the forest is light, Everything's shining, everything's right. mosic: 4.5 bpm: 110.0 duration_secs: 150.0 good_crop: 1.0
