Strummin' my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
(Rap)
(Yo, this is
Wyclef Refugee
Pras well)
(Little bass sittin' up here
on the bass)
(While I'm on this rose
I got my girl L
One time, one time)
(Hey yo L, you know you got the lyrics)
I heard he sang a good song
I heard he had a style
And so
I came to see him and listen for a while
And there he was, this young boy,
stranger to my eyes
Strummin' my pain with his fingers
(One time)
Singing my life with his words
(Two times)
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
I felt all flushed with fever
embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters
and read each one out loud
I pray that he would finish
but he just kept right on
Strummin' my pain with his fingers
(One time)
Singing my life with his words
(Two times)
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
(Rap)
(Yo L-Boogie, take it to the bridge)
Oh… Woh…
La la la…
Woh… La…
Woh… La… Ah…
La…
Strummin' my pain with his fingers
(Yes, he was sing)
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song…
Strummin' my pain… on a tray, you see girl
