Lyrics for Song: Killing Me Softly With His Song
Lyrics for Album: Original Album Series [2012]
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
ooh ooh ooh
ooh ooh ooh
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
chorus
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, 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
chorus
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
And he just kept on singing, singing clear and strong
chorus fades
ohoooooooooh lalalalalalalal..
ohoooooooooh lalalalalalalal...(etc.)
la ah ahahaha
chorus
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
He was strumming my pain
Yeah He was singing my life
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
