[High Quality] CLANNAD: AFTER STORY Opening 'A Song to Pass the Time' FULL with Lyrics

In the opening theme of CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~, the lyrics that match the main story and Lia’s outstanding vocal performance make it an exceptionally well-crafted song.

It’s wonderful to listen to on its own, but if you listen to it again after watching the anime, it can move you to tears naturally.

If you feel like you haven’t cried much lately, I highly recommend listening to it along with the anime.
