FUGEES - Killing Me Softly lyrics

rate me

Strumming dub plates with our fingers,<br>Eliminate sounds with our song,<br>Killing a sound boy with this sound,<br>Killing a sound boy with this sound,<br>Taking sound boys' lives with this dub,<br>Killing him softly with this sound.<br>Strumming my pain with his fingers,<br>Singing my life with his words,<br>Killing me softly with his song,<br>Killing me softly with his song,<br>Telling my whole life with his words,<br>Killing me softly with his song.<br>[lauryn]<br>I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style,<br>And so I came to see him and listen for a while.<br>And there he was this young boy, stranger to my eyes,<br>Strumming my pain with his fingers,<br>Singing my life with his words,<br>Killing me softly with his song,<br>Killing me softly with his song,<br>Telling my whole life with his words,<br>Killing me softly with his song.<br>I felt all flushed with fever,<br>Embarrassed by the crowd,<br>I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.<br>I prayed that he would finish,<br>But he just kept right on strumming my pain with his fingers,<br>Singing my life with his words,<br>Killing me softly with his song,<br>Killing me softly with his song,<br>Telling my whole life with his words,<br>Killing me softly with his song<br>[clef]<br>Yo l-boogie, take it to the bridge<br>[lauryn]<br>(bust it)<br>Strumming my pain with his fingers,<br>Singing my life with his words,<br>Killing me softly with his song,<br>Killing me softly with his song,<br>Telling my whole life with his words,<br>Killing me softly with his song.<br>Strumming my pain with his finger, yeah he was . . .<br>[shoutouts and fade]
