Killing Me Softly Lyrics

Strummin' 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
And listen for a while
And there he was this young bwoy
Stranger to my eyes

Strummin' my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with this song
Killing me softly with this song
Tellin' 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

Strummin' my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Tellin' my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song

Whoaaaaaa, whoaaaaaa
La la la la la laaa
Whoaaaaa, laaaaaa
Whoaaaaa, laaaaaa
Laaaaaaaaaa

Strummin' my pain with his fingers
(Yes he was) singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Tellin' my whole life...
