Killing Me Softly With Her Song - Perry Como

I heard she sang a good song I heard she had a style

And so I came to see her and listen for a while

And there she was this young girl a stranger to my eyes

Strumming my pain with her fingers

Singing my life with her words

Killing me softly with her song

Killing me softly with her song

Telling my whole life with her words

Killing 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

Strumming my pain with her fingers

Singing my life with her words

Killing me softly with her song

Killing me softly with her song

Telling my whole life with her words

Killing 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 singing clear and strong

Strumming my pain with her fingers

Singing my life with her words

Killing me softly with her song

Killing me softly with her song

Telling my whole life with her words

Killing me softly with her song

Killing me softly with her song
