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 had a style.
And there he was this young boy,
a stranger to my eyes.
I heard he sang a good song,
to listen for a while.
And so I came to see him
 
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 ...
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
 
I felt all flushed with fever,
I prayed that he would finish
I felt he found my letters
but he just kept right on ...
and read each one out loud.
embarrassed by the crowd,
 
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Singing my life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Killing me softly with his song ...
 
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
in all my dark despair.
singing clear and strong.
 
Singing my life with his words,
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Killing me softly with his song ...
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song,
Telling my whole life with his words,
 
Killing me ...
Killing me softly with his song,
Singing my life with his words,
Telling my whole life with his words,
Strumming my pain with his fingers,
Killing me softly with his song,
 
Killing me softly with his song,
Killing me softly with his song ...
He was strumming, yeah, he was singing my life.
Telling my whole life with his words,
Killing me softly with his song,
