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