[Kōsei: Verse 1]
Now, the lights have all gone dim
When life was just about to start
I’m left here with a broken heart
You lived each moment on a whim
The brightest star to light the sky
I never thought to say goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
So many words I never got to say
So many songs we’ll never get to play

[Chorus]
I can hear you
I can feel you
In the music
Can you hear me?
I will always hear you

[Verse 2]
You filled my world
You colored in the grey
So through my hands, please let my song
Reach your heart today

[Kaori: Pre-Chorus]
Your music lives forever and a day
[Kōsei/Kaori]
Now your heart will hear our song
Every time I (You) play

[Kaori: Spoken]
It’s funny to be writing a letter to someone I was with ‘til just now
But there was one last thing I wanted to make sure you knew, no matter what happened
And that’s that you, Kōsei Arima, are a meanie
The first time I saw you perform was a recital when I was five years old
The instant you played on that piano, I decided right then and there to learn violin so that one day, we could perform together
But then you quit music, after changing a person’s life like that?
So mean, I was so bummed, I almost gave up
But then, one night, I saw my mom and dad crying and I realized I might not have much time, so I did what I had to do
I got into the same school as you, but you were in such a tight group of friends that I realized there was no room for me, so
That’s when I decided to tell a lie
I said “Kaori loves Watari”
It was never true, but it was the only way I could think of to get close to you
I’m sorry, Kōsei Arima, I told you just one lie
But not really sorry, because that lie brought you to me

[Kōsei: Chorus (sung)]
I can hear you
I can feel you

[Kōsei/Kaori]
You’re my music
[Kōsei]
Always with me, always will be
I can hear you
I can feel you
You’re my music
Can you hear me?
I will always hear you

[Kaori: Spoken]
Hear this, Kōsei
I love you, forever
