The second of three attempts at "My Little Heaven" on here! I tried another full-band arrangement for this song around the midway point of 2015.
When I was going back and trying to dig up all the old tracks for Reflection, this was actually one of the small handful of songs on here where the individual tracks were lost for good, leaving me with just the master track. Had I have found those tracks, I would've been able to clean things up more, but I still worked with what I had here!
lyrics
Equestria was wide open to me
I was told I could do anything
Be anypony I wanted to be
See anywhere that I wanted to see
For too long, I heard the rooster sing
It was time for me to take my leave
While the Acres may have held their charm
I knew that somewhere
There was a life away from the farm
I wanted my little heaven
A slice of life that tastes so good
There was so much to choose from
I needed to know where I stood
Manehattan is where I set off to
To sample a life under the lights
I had an uncle and an aunt that I knew
Who helped me see from the Orange point of view
Made this filly a Manehattanite
They showed me a world brand new
I had dinners I could barely chew
And I grew to miss
Waking up to that cock-a-doodle do
I wanted my little heaven
A slice of life that tastes so good
There was so much to choose from
I needed to know where I stood
My little heaven
Equestria was wide open to me
Equestria was wide open to me
But I saw all I needed to see
A rainbow pointed me to where I belong
And that's here with you all, singing this song
'Cause this is my little heaven
A slice of life that tastes so good
There was so much to choose from
I needed to know where I stood
Here with you all, singing this song
Here with you all, singing this song
In my little heaven
