[00:07.489]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[00:11.318]Singing my life with his words,
[00:15.779]Killing me softly with his song,
[00:19.199]Killing me softly with his song,
[00:23.499]Telling my whole life with his words,
[00:27.929]Killing me softly with his song.
[00:35.610]
[00:47.310]I heard he sang a good song,
[00:51.400]I heard he had a style,
[00:55.690]And so I came to see him
[00:58.930]to listen for a while.
[01:04.800]And there he was this young boy,
[01:08.490]A stranger to my eyes,
[01:11.910]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[01:16.400]Singing my life with his words,
[01:20.380]Killing me softly with his song,
[01:23.620]Killing me softly with his song,
[01:27.850]Telling my whole life with his words,
[01:32.40]Killing me softly with his song.
[01:39.700]
[01:42.460]I felt all flushed with fever,
[01:46.740]Embarrassed by the crowd,
[01:50.939]I felt he found my letters
[01:54.199]and read each one out loud.
[01:59.469]I prayed that he would finish,
[02:03.739]But he just kept right on
[02:08.489]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[02:11.418]Singing my life with his words,
[02:15.668]Killing me softly with his song,
[02:18.938]Killing me softly with his song,
[02:23.208]Telling my whole life with his words,
[02:27.438]Killing me softly with his song
[02:36.489]
[02:37.768]He sang as if he knew me ,
[02:41.918]In all my dark despair
[02:46.218]And then he looked right through me ,
[02:49.989]As if l wasn't there
[02:54.718]And he just keep on saying ,
[02:59.28]Sining clear and strong
[03:02.388]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[03:06.738]Singing my life with his words,
[03:10.968]Killing me softly with his song,
[03:15.489]Killing me softly with his song,
[03:18.438]Telling my whole life with his words,
[03:22.708]Killing me softly with his song.
[03:33.338]Oh... La... Oh... La...Ah...
[04:01.758]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[04:05.738]Singing my life with his words,
[04:09.938]Killing me softly with his song,
[04:13.798]Killing me softly with his song,
[04:17.338]Telling my whole life with his words,
[04:22.299]Killing me softly with his song.
