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 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
I felt all flushed with fever
Embarassed 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
ooooohhhhhhhh
oh oh oh oohhhh
ahh ah aha ah ah
lalalalalala
oh oh oh
la la la
oh oh oh
laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
laaaaa lalaaaaaaa la la lala lalaa
