Killing Me Softly With His Song Lyrics - X Factor (uk)

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 sang a good song, I heard he had a style 

And so I came to see him to 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, embarrassed by the crowd 

I felt he 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 kept on singing, singing clear and strong 

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 

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 

He was strumming my pain, yeah, he 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
