Killing Me Softly - Nils Landgren
Lyrics by:Norman Gimbel
Composed by:Charles Fox
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 this song
Killing me softly with this song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with this 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 this song
Killing me softly with this song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with this song
He sangas if he knew me
In all my dark despair
And then he looked right through me
As if I wasn't there
But he was there a stranger
Singing clear and strong
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with this song
Killing me softly with this song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with this song
