I heard she sang a good song, I heard she had a style I heard she sang a good song, I heard she had a style Ouvi dizer que ela cantou muito bem, ouvi dizer que ela tinha um estilo And so I came to see her and listen for a while And so I came to see her and listen for a while Então vim vê-la e escutá-la por alguns instantes And there she was this young girl, a stranger to my eyes And there she was this young girl, a stranger to my eyes E lá estava ela, essa moça, desconhecida aos meus olhos Strumming my pain with her fingers Strumming my pain with her fingers Dedilhando minha dor com seus dedos Singing my life with her words Singing my life with her words Cantando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção Telling my whole life with her words Telling my whole life with her words Contando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd Eu senti meu estômago afundar, senti que todos me olhavam I felt she found my letters and read each one out loud I felt she found my letters and read each one out loud Senti como se ela tivesse encontrado minhas cartas e as estivesse lendo em voz alta I prayed that she would finish but she just kept right on I prayed that she would finish but she just kept right on Eu supliquei pra que ela parasse, porém ela continuou Strumming my pain with her fingers Strumming my pain with her fingers Dedilhando minha dor com seus dedos Singing my life with her words Singing my life with her words Cantando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção Telling my whole life with her words Telling my whole life with her words Contando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção She sang as if she knew me in all my dark despair She sang as if she knew me in all my dark despair Ela cantava como se me conhecesse em meu terrível desespero And then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there And then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there E então ela olhou através de mim como se eu não estivesse lá But she was there, the stranger, singing clear and strong But she was there, the stranger, singing clear and strong Porém ela lá estava, a estranha, cantando em alto e bom som Strumming my pain with her fingers Strumming my pain with her fingers Dedilhando minha dor com seus dedos Singing my life with her words Singing my life with her words Cantando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção Telling my whole life with her words Telling my whole life with her words Contando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção
