Strumming my pain with his fingers Strumming my pain with his fingers Dedilhando minha dor com seus dedos Singing my life with his words Singing my life with his words Cantando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções Telling my whole life with his words Telling my whole life with his words Contando minha vida inteira com suas palavras Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções I heard he sang a good song I heard he sang a good song Eu ouvi ele cantar uma boa música I heard he had a style I heard he had a style Ouvi dizer que ele tinha um estilo And so I came to see him And so I came to see him E então eu vim para vê-lo And listen for a while And listen for a while E ouvir por um tempo And there he was this young boy And there he was this young boy E lá estava ele este jovem rapaz A stranger to my eyes A stranger to my eyes Um estranho para meus olhos Strumming my pain with his fingers Strumming my pain with his fingers Dedilhando minha dor com seus dedos Singing my life with his words Singing my life with his words Cantando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções Telling my whole life with his words Telling my whole life with his words Contando minha vida inteira com suas palavras Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções A stranger to my eyes A stranger to my eyes Um estranho para meus olhos I felt all blushed with fever I felt all blushed with fever Senti tudo corou com febre Embarrassed by the crowd Embarrassed by the crowd Envergonhada pela multidão I felt he found my letters I felt he found my letters Eu senti que ele encontrou minhas cartas And read each one out loud And read each one out loud E leu cada uma em voz alta I prayed that he would finish I prayed that he would finish Eu rezei para que terminasse But he just kept right on But he just kept right on Mas ele apenas continuou Strumming my pain with his fingers Strumming my pain with his fingers Dedilhando minha dor com seus dedos Singing my life with his words Singing my life with his words Cantando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções Telling my whole life with his words Telling my whole life with his words Contando minha vida inteira com suas palavras Killing me softly with his songs Killing me softly with his songs Matando-me suavemente com suas canções
