Killing Me Softly With His Song - 島袋寛子 (しまぶくろ ひろこ)

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

Mmmm

Turutu

Hmmm

Hmmm

I heard he sang a good song

I heard he had a style

And so I came to see him a listen for a while

And there he was this young boy

A stranger to my eyes

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 felt all flushed with fever

Embarassed by the crowd

I felt he'd found my letters and read each one out loud

I prayed that he would finish

But he just kept right on

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

He sang as if he knew me

In all my dark despair

And then he looked right through me as if

I wasn't there

And he just get down stranger

Singing clear and loud

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

Aaaaaaa

Lalalalala oohhh

Laaaa

Aaaaaaooo

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

Hei wa strumming my pain

Ya ya was singing my life

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
