Strumming my pain with her fingers
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 sooong...
Hu hu hu hu hu hu (coro)
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 eeeyes
Strumming my pain with her fingers
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 soooftly
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 oooon
Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
Strumming my pain with her fingers
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
