‘Catch A Shooting Star’ takes place early into the second act, shortly after Kōsei finally sees Kaori again following her onstage collapse. The majority of the song is Kaori pushing Kōsei to catch a shooting star and find a way to keep playing, reminding him of the small snapshot of joy they had ons...
[Verse 1: Kaori]
I hope you remember the day we took on impossible
I hope you can still feel the way butterflies can fly
When your heart found the courage to play
We brought colors to life in the grey
Oh, I hope you remember the rush of flying high
Time took one moment to stop, just for the two of us
One heart, one beat, and one song
Wasn’t it beautiful?
[Pre-chorus: Kaori & Kōsei]
Even with my embarrassing flaws
I will never forget the applause
I pushed you and pulled you, and it was wonderful
[Chorus: Kaori]
Let’s catch a shooting star
Ten thousand wishes far
Now it’s in the hands, don’t let it slip away
Wonders in the sky, worry waves goodbye
We can touch a piece of heaven when we play
Like the sun each day sees time and takes it
The world is still ‘til music wakes it
Here’s our chance
[Both]
Let’s catch a shooting star
[Verse 2: Kaori]
Don’t let the time tick away
The world is an open door
Wake up the keys from their sleep
I’ll go grab my violin
We found our new start on that stage
On this bridge, we will turn a new page
Here’s our chance now, take my hand now
Get ready, let’s jump in!
[Chorus: Kaori]
Let’s catch a shooting star
Ten thousand wishes far
Now it’s in the hands, don’t let it slip away
Find a lullaby, in movies passing by
We can touch a piece of heaven when we play
Like the sun each day sees time and takes it
The world is still ‘til music wakes it
Here’s our chance
[Both]
Let’s catch a shooting
[Bridge: Kaori & Kōsei]
We’ll shine like a riot
Reach higher than high
Stars aren’t made of wishes
Go make your wish and look tomorrow in the eye
[Pre-Chorus: Both]
Fly as fast as Haley’s comet
Together, you and I
[Chorus: Both]
Let’s catch a shooting star
Ten thousand wishes far
Now it’s in the hands, don’t let it slip away
Jump into the sky, as fireworks fly by We can touch a piece of heaven when we play
Like the sun each day sees time and takes it
The world is still ‘til music wakes it
Here’s our chance
Let’s catch a shooting
[Spoken: Kaori & Kōsei]
Yes?
Yes!
[Outro: Both]
Star!
