Lyrics

[90:00.01] songstrumming my pan with his figures
[90:00.02] singing my life with his words
[90:00.03] killing me softly with his song
[90:00.04] killing softly with his song
[90:00.05] telling my whole life with his words
[90:00.06] killing softly with his song
[90:00.07]
[90:00.08] I heard he sang a good
[90:00.09] I heard he had a style
[90:00.10] And so I came to see him to listen for a while
[90:00.11] And there he was this young boy
[90:00.12] a stranger to my eye
[90:00.13] strumming my pan with his figures
[90:00.14] singing my life with his words
[90:00.15] killing me softly with his song
[90:00.16] killing softly with his song
[90:00.17] telling my whole life with his words
[90:00.18] killing softly with his song
[90:00.19] I felt flushed with fever
[90:00.20] embarassed by the crowd
[90:00.21] I felt he found my letter and read each word out loud
[90:00.22] I prayed he would finished
[90:00.23] but he just kept right on
[90:00.24] songstrumming my pan with his figures
[90:00.25] singing my life with his words
[90:00.26] killing me softly with his song
[90:00.27] killing softly with his song
[90:00.28] telling my whole life with his words
[90:00.29] killing softly with his song
[90:00.30]
[90:00.31] he sang as if he knew me
[90:00.32] and all my dark despair
[90:00.33] and then he looked right through me
[90:00.34] as if I wasn't there
[90:00.35] and he just kept on singing
[90:00.36] singing clear and strong
[90:00.37] songstrumming my pan with his figures
[90:00.38] singing my life with his words
[90:00.39] killing me softly with his song
[90:00.40] killing softly with his song
[90:00.41] telling my whole life with his words
[90:00.42] killing softly with his song
[90:00.43] oh oh oh
[90:00.44] la la la
[90:00.45]
[90:00.46]
[90:00.47]
[90:00.48]
[90:00.49]
[90:00.50]
[90:00.51]
