Killing Me Softly

Strummin' my pain with his fingers Singin' 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 And listen for a while And there he was this young boy A stranger to my eyes Strummin' my pain with his fingers Singin' 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 Embarra*sed 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 Strummin' my pain with his fingers (One time, one time) Singin' my life with his words (Two times, two times) Killing me softly with his song Killing softly with his song telling my whole life With his words killing me softly with his song I said whoa oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, la, la, la, whoa Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohla, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, whoa Oh, oh, oh, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la Strummin' my pain with his fingers (Yes he was) Singin' 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
