Lyrics

[00:03.90] Strumming my pain with his fingers
[00:09.95] Singing my life with his words
[00:13.82]
[00:16.07] Killing me softly with his song
[00:20.62] Killing me softly with his song
[00:27.55] Telling my whole life with his words
[00:33.04]
[00:33.66] Killing me softly with his song ...
[00:49.45]
[01:13.05] I heard he sang a good song I heard he had a style.
[01:17.42] And so I came to see him to listen for a while.
[01:24.97]
[01:25.97] And there he was this young boy a stranger to my eyes.
[01:33.83] Strumming my pain with his fingers
[01:37.95] Singing my life with his words
[01:41.32]
[01:42.25] Killing me softly with his song
[01:45.94] Killing me softly with his song
[01:50.55] Telling my whole life with his words
[01:55.17] Killing me softly with his song ...
[02:05.40] I felt all flushed with fever embarrassed by the crowd
[02:13.08]
[02:13.77] I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.
[02:20.44]
[02:22.44] I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on ...
[02:30.62] Strumming my pain with his fingers
[02:34.11] Singing my life with his words
[02:37.60]
[02:39.10] Killing me softly with his song
[02:42.66] Killing me softly with his song
[02:46.71] Telling my whole life with his words
[02:50.64]
[02:51.77] Killing me softly with his song ...
[03:02.00] He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair.
[03:08.93]
[03:10.68] And then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there.
[03:16.92] But he just came to singing singing clear and strong.
[03:26.90] Strumming my pain with his fingers
[03:31.02] Singing my life with his words
[03:36.57] Killing me softly with his song
[03:39.69] Killing me softly with his song
[03:43.62] Telling my whole life with his words
[03:48.36] Killing me softly with his song ...
