[00:01.09]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[00:05.08]Singing my life with his words,
[00:09.17]Killing me softly with his song,
[00:12.28]killing me softly with his song,
[00:16.34]Telling my whole life with his words,
[00:20.43]Killing me softly with his song.
[00:47.03]I heard he sang a good song,
[00:50.92]I heard he had a style,
[00:54.86]And so I came to see him and listen for a while.
[01:02.91]And there he was this young boy,
[01:06.73]a stranger to my eyes,
[01:09.95]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[01:14.00]Singing my life with his words,
[01:18.04]Killing me softly with his song,
[01:20.90]Killing me softly with his song,
[01:24.99]Telling my whole life with his words,
[01:28.99]Killing me softly with his song.
[01:39.21]I felt all flushed with fever,
[01:43.15]Embarrassed by the crowd,
[01:47.09]I felt he found my letters and read each word out loud.
[01:55.02]I prayed that he would finish,
[01:59.07]But he just kept right on
[02:02.14]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[02:06.23]Singing my life with his words,
[02:10.23]Killing me softly with his song,
[02:13.16]Killing me softly with his song,
[02:17.10]Telling my whole life with his words,
[02:21.23]Killing me softly with his song
[02:31.15]He said as if he knew me
[02:34.79]In all my god's spaer
[02:38.88]And then he looked right through me
[02:41.99]as if I wasn't there.
[02:46.74]And he just kept on singing
[02:50.78]singing clear and strong
[02:53.87]Strumming my pain with his fingers,
[02:58.01]Singing my life with his words,
[03:01.95]Killing me softly with his song,
[03:04.92]Killing me softly with his song,
[03:08.76]Telling my whole life with his words,
[03:12.90]Killing me softly with his song.
[03:22.39]Oh,oh......
[03:25.73]la la la la la
[03:30.33]la~
[03:49.92]he was strumming my pain
[03:54.26]he was singing my life
[03:58.29]Killing me softly with his song,
[04:01.11]Killing me softly with his song,
[04:05.50]Telling my whole life with his words,
[04:09.32]Killing me softly with his song.
