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 uma música boa, eu soube 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 E então eu vim para vê-la e ouvir por um tempo 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 esta jovem, um estranho para 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 inteira 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 me senti toda vermelha de febre, envergonhada pela multidão 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 que ela encontrou minhas cartas e leu cada uma 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 rezei para que ela iria terminar, mas ela apenas 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 inteira com suas palavras Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song Matando-me suavemente com sua canção Ela cantou como se me conhecesse em todo o meu desespero escuro She sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair She sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair Mas então ela olhou através de mim como se eu não estivesse lá But then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there But then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there E ela continuou cantando, cantando clara e forte And she just carried on singing, singing clear and strong And she just carried on singing, singing clear and strong Dedilhando minha dor com seus dedos Strumming my pain with her fingers Strumming my pain with her fingers Cantando minha vida com suas palavras Singing my life with her words Singing my life with her words Matando-me suavemente com sua canção 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 Contando minha vida inteira com suas palavras Telling my whole life with her words Telling my whole life with her words Matando-me suavemente com sua canção Killing me softly with her song Killing me softly with her song
