The Seeds of the Past



The Seeds of the Past (parts 1 & 2) is a song in the Christmas special, "A Hearth's Warming Tail" from My Little Pony. The song is used when the Spirit of Hearth's Warming Past takes Snowfall Frost into the past to show her how much she loved Hearth's Warming when she was young, but pushed aside everything involving Hearth's Warming in order to become a powerful Unicorn.

Part 1
Spirit of Hearth's Warming Past: As a young thing, life sure is somethin' You go makin' choices large and small Always growin' like a seedlin' And playin' is like dreamin' And before you know it, big and tall

And every little bitty choice you make Sends you down a path to who you are today So let's take a little trip down memory lane And see just what the past has to say

Aw, look how cute you were. Looks like you're not too upset it's Hearth's Warming Eve either.

The seeds of the past They grow pretty fast Just look at who you were back then The seeds, as they grow Look what they can show Reveal the truth time and again

Part 2
Spirit of Hearth's Warming Past: Then some distress Words so careless Standin' there, you don't know what to do Feelin' helpless You can't make it hurt less So you go and change your point of view

And in that moment, though you didn't know it Your defenses set up walls you built to last Leading to the pony you've become today And the spell you're about to cast It all comes from your past

Snowfall Frost: The seeds of the past We grow up so fast Some hurts never go away

Spirit of Hearth's Warming Past: The seeds, as they grow This we can't let go All tied to this one holiday
