<b>Killing Me Softly</b> by <i>Harry Connick, Jr.</i><br />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 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 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

And she just kept on singing

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
