[00:22.636]Strumming my pain with his fingers

[00:29.950]Singing my life with his words

[00:36.219]Killing me softly with his song

[00:40.947]Killing me softly with his song

[00:46.590]Telling my whole life with his words

[00:52.833]Killing me softly with his song

[01:08.141]I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style

[01:18.093]And so I came to see him, to listen for a while

[01:27.654]And there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes

[01:37.111]Strumming my pain with his fingers

[01:42.309]Singing my life with his words

[01:47.246]Killing me softly with his song

[01:51.034]Killing me softly with his song

[01:55.971]Telling my whole life with his words

[02:00.960]Killing me softly with his song

[02:42.495]Killing me softly with his song

[02:46.805]Telling my whole life with his words

[02:51.037]Killing me softly with his song

[03:01.460]I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd

[03:10.107]I felt he'd found my letters and read each one out loud

[03:18.309]I prayed that he would finish,oh,no,but he just kept right on

[03:26.250]Strumming my pain with his fingers

[03:30.534]Singing my life with his words

[03:34.844]Killing me softly with his song

[03:38.058]Killing me softly with his song

[03:42.342]Telling my whole life with his words

[03:46.521]Killing me softly with his song
