"Turning Over a New Leaf" - Animal Crossing Song by MandoPony [Ft. Emily Jones]

First MandoPony video of 2015, here we go!
This time it's a song about Animal Crossing called "Turning Over A New Leaf"! The Mayor is happy to be in his new home and new town, but when he decides to strike out in search of new video games, how will Isabelle handle his absence?

I want to give a HUGE thank you to the wonderful Sabrina Alberghetti for making the amazing artwork you see in this video. She's extremely talented, and I know the video wouldn't be half as good as it is without her contributions. Thank you Sibsy!!

I had SO much fun making this song. Animal Crossing is one of my favorite addictions, so getting a chance to collab on this with Sabrina and Emily was an honor. I really hope you guys enjoy this song as much as I do!
Thanks so much for listening and take care!! Be back with more music soon!

LYRICS:
Hop off a train
Into a new town
It's exactly what I needed
I can't explain
What I have found
But it's exactly where
I long to be
I'm in charge now,
But I don't know how
The stars must have aligned
All these friendly faces
Erase any traces
Of worry from my mind
So it's time I turned over
A new leaf...
And if you say
That you're really here to stay
I can do my best to play my part
And give you the start you need
To succeed
And if you're unsure,
I will be the cure
I will be here on the job
Waiting for you, loyal and true,
'Cause that's what friends do!
Now I know that
I'm bound to roam
Even though it pains me to leave this home
I gotta catch 'em all,
And slide between worlds,
I gotta smash my foes,
And see the dreams of two plumbers unfurl
There's more to life
Than catching fish from the seas,
I'm tired of weeds and getting
Stung by bees, so it's
Time to leave the mayor's chair
The truth really is I can't always be there
So it's time I turned over
A new leaf...
I hope you'll say
That you're coming back some day
I will do my best to fill your void
Me and Lloyd will try to scrape by
And if you're so sure
That you'll be fine alone
Then I will be too, waiting for you
Loyal and true,
'Cause that's what friends should do...
I've been away for so long
I wonder where he's gone
I wonder what they're (he's) doing right now
And now I find
That you're on my mind
So it's time I turned over
A new leaf...
I hope you'll say
That you're finally here to stay
(I'm finally here to stay!)
I'm so glad you're back in our little town
Without you around, nothing's been the same
But it's fine!
I always knew I'd (hoped you'd) change my (your) mind
Because I (you) knew I was waiting for you
Loyal and true...
That's what friends do!
It's what we do-o-o-o-!
That's what friends do!
