Refrain: 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. Verse1: 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 was this young boy a stranger to my eyes. Refrain !!!Play verse 2 and 3 like verse 1!!! Verse2: 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. Refrain Verse3: He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair. And the he looked right trough me as if I wasn?t there. And he just kept on singing singing clear and strong. Refrain
