Killing Me Softy With His Song

Killing Me Softly With His Song

 作詞:Norman Gimbel　作曲:Charles Fox

 I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style

 And so I came to see him, to listen for a while

 And there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes

 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

 I felt all flushed with fever, embarassed by the crowd 

 I felt he'd found my letters and read each one out loud

 I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on

 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

 He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair

 And then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there

 But he was there, this stranger, singing clear and loud

 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
