Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song ...
Killing me softly with his song,
Singing my life with his words,
 
I heard he had a style.
And so I came to see him
a stranger to my eyes.
I heard he sang a good song,
And there he was this young boy,
to listen for a while.
 
Killing me softly with his song ...
Killing me softly with his song,
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Killing me softly with his song,
Singing my life with his words,
Telling my whole life with his words,
 
I prayed that he would finish
but he just kept right on ...
I felt all flushed with fever,
embarrassed by the crowd,
and read each one out loud.
I felt he found my letters
 
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Killing me softly with his song,
Singing my life with his words,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song ...
 
singing clear and strong.
in all my dark despair.
He sang as if he knew me
as if I wasn't there.
And he just kept on singing,
And then he looked right through me
 
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song ...
Killing me softly with his song,
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
 
Telling my whole life with his words,
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Killing me softly with his song,
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me ...
 
Telling my whole life with his words,
He was strumming, yeah, he was singing my life.
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song ...
Killing me softly with his song,
