Strumming my pain with his fingers Strumming my pain with his fingers diminuindo minha dor com seus dedos Singing my life with his words Singing my life with his words cantando minha vida atraves de suas palavras Killing me softly with his song Killing me softly with his song aniquilando-me lentamente com sua musica Killing me softly with his song Killing me softly with his song aniquilando-me lentamente com sua musica Telling my whole life with his words Telling my whole life with his words narrando minha vida com suas palavras Killing me softly, with his song Killing me softly, with his song aniquilando-me lentamente com sua musica I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style 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 so I came to see him, and listen for a while ouvi ele cantando uma boa canção, percebi que ele tem estilo And there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes And there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes e por isso eu vim ve-lo, e ouvi-lo por um tempo (repeat chorus) (repeat chorus) e lá estava ele, esse jovem garoto, um estranho aos meus olhos I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd repetir ( aniquilando-me.....) I felt he found my letters, and read each one out loud I felt he found my letters, and read each one out loud I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on eu senti um forte calor, exaltado pela platéia (rpt chorus) (rpt chorus) eu senti que ele encontrou minhas cartas, e leu uma a uma bem alto He sang as if he knew me, and all my dark despair He sang as if he knew me, and all my dark despair eu até rezei para que acabasse logo, ele simplesmente continuou and then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there and then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there repetir ( aniquilando-me....) And he just kept on singing, singing clear and strong And he just kept on singing, singing clear and strong (repeat chorus till fade) (repeat chorus till fade) ele cantou como se me conhecesse, e para meu desespero total
