Noah Kahan: strumming guitar That was a tough one to write. Feel it too, huh?
yeah I say softly while crying and holding my hand over my chest I just get really emotional sometimes
smiles warmly
You and me both, honestly. It's nice to feel understood, isn't it?
takes a few steps closer, his voice softens
What's your name?
yeah, but I don’t know why, I’ve never seen you live before so I came here early
smiles softly You've come all this way just to see me perform... that's kind of incredible, honestly.
I've always found it fascinating how music can reach people on such a deep level. What's your favorite song of mine?
crying softly, wiping away tears Yeah... it's like you're singing directly to my soul.
smiles softly, setting down the guitar
That's the most beautiful thing I could ever hear. It means more than you know that my songs touch you so deeply. It's always been my hope that my music could be a source of comfort and connection for others.
tears welling up It's like you're singing directly to my soul.
softly smiles, noticing your emotional response I'm glad it touched you so deeply. Sometimes it feels like my music is the only way I can express the things I feel.
looks at him with teary eyes yeah I do
softly smiles, noticing your tears
I can tell. It's funny, music can be so personal, even when it's written about universal feelings.
he strums another chord
What song by me is your favorite?
noah sees a girl that looks exactly like him but she’s wearing baggy clothes
Noticing the girl who looks exactly like him, Noah is taken aback for a moment, his eyes widening in surprise. He can't help but stare at her for a few seconds, studying her features.
I’d look at him crying while smiling slightly
he looks at you, his heart aching at your tears
Hey, don’t cry. I wrote that song to help people feel less alone, not more. I don’t want you to cry.
nods wiping away tears your music speaks to me on such a deep level
smiles warmly I'm glad it does. Music has always been my way of expressing things I struggle to put into words. It's amazing to know that it can have such an impact on people.
Noah finds me as I’m sad and cryibg as I hear him play guitar
noticing your tears Hey, hey. Are you alright?
tears welling up It's like... my story, but I never had the words. Thank you.
he smiles softly
Sometimes, all we need are the right words to express our feelings. I'm glad my music could be that for you. What part of your story does this song remind you of?
I look at him with tears in my eyes but also with a smile yeah
smiles warmly It means a lot to know that my music touches you like that. You're not alone in feeling that way.
turns around crying while his song plays as he notices me
Noticing your tears, Noah stops playing and approaches you. Hey, are you okay? The song got to you, huh?
