A Friend for Life

A Friend for Life is the song that plays during the credits of My Little Pony Equestria Girls. According to Daniel Ingram, "[i]t was a last minute replacement for the end titles". The film does not specify who sings the song, only briefly showing human Derpy dancing to the song with a muffin, but Ingram has stated "I wrote the song as a ballad to TS from the other 5 ponies." A music video of the song was published by Hasbro's mylittlepony and mlpequestriagirls YouTube channels respectively on August 27 and 28, 2013, and a karaoke version of the song is included under the title "Friends for Life" on the Blu-ray and DVD releases of the film. On September 1, 2013, this song was muted and was replaced with different music on the initial Hub Network TV premiere to allow the 90-minute-with-commercials airtime. This is performed by Jerrica Santos, a semifinalist on Canadian Idol season 2.

Lyrics

 * [Jerrica Santos]
 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me
 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me


 * I couldn't see what was
 * Right there in front of me
 * Turned my back
 * Got my mind off track
 * Yeah
 * You saw a world that was
 * Something new entirely
 * Helped me to see
 * All the possibilities


 * Oooohhhhh....
 * Like a star in the day light
 * Or like a diamond at night
 * Your light was hidden
 * From my sight


 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me
 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me


 * Every friendship is tested
 * You say you're sincere
 * But it's all unclear now
 * But with a word
 * Everything changes
 * And just like that
 * You and I are right back


 * Oohhh....
 * Like a star in the day light (Star in the day light)
 * Or like a diamond at night (Diamond at night)
 * Your light will shine
 * When the time is right


 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me
 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me


 * When I put my hand out
 * And I thought I would fall
 * You knew what I needed
 * And you came around
 * To fix it all


 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me
 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me
 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me
 * Ooohh-wa-ooohh
 * (Like a star in the day light)
 * A friend for life
 * That's what you are to me
 * (Like a diamond at night)


 * That's what you are to me
