Killing Me Softly With His Song |
| Strumming my pain with his fingers, |
| Singing my life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Telling my whole life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song … |
| I heard he sang a good song, |
| I heard he had a style. |
| And so I came to see him to listen |
| For a while. |
| And there he was this young boy, |
| a stranger to my eyes. |
| Strumming my pain with his fingers, |
| Singing my life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Telling my whole life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song … |
| I felt all flushed with fever, |
| Embarrassed by the crowd, |
| I felt he found my letters and read |
| Each one out loud. |
| I prayed that he would finish but he |
| just kept right on… |
| Strumming my pain with his fingers, |
| Singing my life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Telling my whole life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song … |
| He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair. |
| And then he looked right through me |
| As if I wasn’t there. |
| But he just came to singing, singing |
| Clear and strong. |
| Strumming my pain with his fingers, |
| Singing my life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Telling my whole life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song … |
| He was strumming my pain, he was singing my song. |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Killing me softly with his song, |
| Telling my whole life with his words, |
| Killing me softly with his song… |
| With his song … |
