strummin my pain with his fingers
singing my life with his words
killing me softly with his song
killing me softly,with his song
tellin 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
so i went to see him and listened for a while
and there he was this young one
a stranger to my eyes
chorus
i felt all flushed with fever
embaressed by the crowd
i felt he found my letters
and read each one outloud
i pray tha he would finish
but he just kept right on
chorus
ooooooo,wooooooooooo,,hahaha
lalalalalalalalala
wooooo,lalalalalalala
uh uh uh uh
la,la,la,la,la,la,la,la,la
strumming my pain with his fingers
(yes he was)
singing my life with his words
(yayyaa)
rest of chorus
