Killing Me Softly

Lyrics

I heard she sang a good song
 I heard she had a style
 And so I came to see her
 To listen for a while
 And there she was
 This young girl
 A stranger to my eyes
 [CHORUS:]
 Strumming my pain
 With her fingers
 She was singing
 My life with her words
 Killing me softly
 With her song
 Killing me softly
 With her song
 Telling my whole life
 With her words
 Killing me softly
 With her song
 I felt all flushed with fever
 Embarrassed by the crowd
 I felt she found my letters
 And read each one out loud
 I prayed that she would finish
 But she just kept right on
 [CHORUS]
 Hoo, ooh...
 She sang as if
 She knew me, yeah
 In all my dark despair
 And then she looked
 Right through me
 As if I wasn't there
 But she just kept
 On singing strong
 Singing clear and
 [CHORUS]
 Strumming my pain
 With her fingers
 She was singing
 My life with her words
 (She was, she was)
 Killing me softly
 With her song
 Killing me softly
 With her song
 Telling my whole life
 With her words
 Killing me softly
 With her song
 [last two verses: x2]
