|
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 ... |
|
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 ... |
|
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 ... |
