Yeah, I stole that picking pattern from Matthew Mosier :D

Man it's been awhile since I've released a straight acoustic song, AND this is the first "love" song I've ever written
so WOO! Anyways I had the amazing talented Feather help me write the lyrics and sing this song with me! She pretty much has one of the best voices ever doesn't she? This song is about Big Mac and Fluttershy by the way if you couldn't tell from the amazing artwork, WHICH just happens to be from feather. Lol I'm beginning to think she does everything :D

Lyrics (written by both me and Feather)

Verse 1
(Joaf) Walking up to you
is the hardest thing to do
And every time I look into your eyes
I forget just what to do

(Feather) Deciding what to say
Tryin' to chase my fears away
But every time I look into your eyes
Nerves begin to fray

Chorus
(Together) All this time spent down, for my life to turn around
I know I'll find a way,  to be with you someday
And someday you'll see, you'll notice me

Verse 2
(Joaf) All the times I've tried
to be right by your side
but the hardest thing of all to do
is to try and talk with you

(Feather) Wishing from afar
Tryin' to find the right star
But the hardest thing of all to do
is to try and talk with you

Chorus

Bridge
(Joaf) How am I gonna act?
(Feather) What will I do
(Together) When I'm finally with you
(Joaf) How will time pass us by?
(Feather) Stay by my side
(Together) I don't know what to do
(Together) I hope that you feel the same way I do
(Joaf) I hope you do

Verse 3
(Joaf) Standing at your door
Not knowing what to do
"I must be crazy for even saying this"
"but I'm in love with you"
(feather's lyrics)

(Feather) I look into your eyes
What a perfect surprise
"You're not crazy for saying this"
"Cause I love you too"

Ending Chorus
(Together) All this time spent down, for my life to turn around
I think l found a way,  to be with you someday
And today you've seen, you've noticed me

I remember when these songs came out back in the day, 2012-ish, one of the best times of my life. Built a mega playlist of all these songs. It's been quite a few years now since I listened, but now going back and listening to a few of them - trip down memory lane. Thank you for capturing lightning in a bottle.

Big Mac and Fluttershy?

I can live with that! Writers! DO YOUR THING!

[FailingDarkness]

Big Mac and Fluttershy, yeah, I could so ship that. Awesome song!

[FritzyBeat]

I've listened to this song so many times now, and there really isn't a word I can think of that properly expresses just how wonderful it is~ Puts a smile on my face every time I hear it =)

It's so simple, and yet so beautiful <3

[MannymalX]

This is one of my favorite musical pieces from the fandom ever!
There's something Special in this song. Love the lyrics, the Guitar composition and the Soft and beautiful voices in this.
I remember listening this for the first time back in 2015, Just fell in love with this song.
Thanks for giving us this gift Joafie!

[Joaftheloaf]

You know same thing with my girlfriend. We met because of mlp, and both adored the music side to it. I wrote this song because I was scared to tell her how I felt about her, and I explained every emotion I felt in the lyrics. It wasn't until 6 months after this song came out that I finally told her how I felt. Even though she's 2000 miles away, and I've only seen her in person twice, I can say without a doubt that she is my hero, my match, and I adore her more than anyone in the entire world <3

[SoundOfTheAviators]

Beautiful! I'm a sucker for a good acoustic love song. <3

[MarcusWarnerMusic]

Very nice, Mr Loaf, can't believe I've only just heard this! Top tips for future releases: reverb wet signal needs to be brought down a little and shortened, and when feather does a harmony over the top of your voice, it'd be nice to have it a little quieter. Keep an eye on the sibilances as well ;) Very nice, I remember when you sent me a message in 2012, you've developed so much since then -- well done!

[featherponyart]

Thanks for inviting me in for this! It was lots of fun! :DDD <3

[cats]

man, it's 2021... I stopped being in the mlp fandom a long time ago, but this song will forever be with me

[RainbowDashie]

1:41 "is to try any f**k with you" once it has been heard it can not be unheard

[Joaftheloaf]

OOOH thank you! I must say, your collab with feather was absolutely amazing :D

[Joaftheloaf]

Well I'm glad you enjoy my music! :D However might I add that there are MANY amazing brony musicians who are not as well known as the ones you listed. Some of my favorites are Ponky Piano, Poni1kenobi, Turquoise Splash, Jeff Burgess, Megaphoric, ISMBOFepicly, Dropkickproductionstx, and many MANY more. You should check those guys out. All of them are truly superb musicians that don't get as much recognition as they should.

[Joaftheloaf]

HAI RAIN ITS FUN PLAYING FINAL FANTASY WITH YOU!! :D

[LunatraMusic]

You and Feather make the best music together, plain and simple. Love the song, really beautiful work!

[kittehspider]

This almost made me cry... Literally. The lyrics started, and I got teary-eyed. This is amazing. Thank you, so, oh so very much.

[xz]

Dang, everything you touch turns to gold, and adding Feather makes it just HNNNG. So many feels. Hope to see you at Cloudcon!

[caffeinatedllama]

I am grateful for my crush right now. He used "Come Home Soon" for an English project like a month or two ago, and I, being curious, looked you up. Now, I get to listen to great songs like this. Thank you, sir Joaf!

[山田春樹-ld]

This is one of the best songs in the fandom for me, it makes me feel nostalgic about the old days for some reason ^^ It's just really great

[Luigiboy]

This was actually the first song that I ever heard from you Joaf. I'm proud to say that you're my favorite brony artist!
