I heard she Sang a good song I heard she Had a style And so I came To see her And listened For a while And there she was This young girl A stranger to my eyes Strummin' my pain With her fingers Singin' my life With her words Killin' me softly With her song Killin' me softly With her song Tellin' my whole life With her words Killin' 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 aloud I prayed that She would finish But she just Kept right on Strummin' my pain With her fingers Singin' my life With her words Killin' me softly With her song Killin' me softly With her song Tellin' my whole life With her words Killin' 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 But she was there This stranger Singin' clear and strong Strummin' my pain With her fingers Singin' my life With her words Killin' me softly With her song Killin' me softly With her song Tellin' my whole life With her words Killin' me softly With her song Killin' me softly With her song
