Killing Me Softly

Matándome Suavemente

Killing Me Softly

Tocando mi dolor con sus dedosStrumming my pain with his fingers
Cantando mi vida con sus palabrasSinging my life with his words
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song
Contando toda mi vida con sus palabrasTelling my whole life with his words
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song

Escuché que cantaba bien, escuché que tenía estiloI heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style
Y así vine a verlo, a escuchar por un ratoAnd so I came to see him, to listen for a while
Y allí estaba él, este joven muchacho, un extraño para mis ojosAnd there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes
Tocando mi dolor con sus dedosStrumming my pain with his fingers

Cantando mi vida con sus palabrasSinging my life with his words
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song

Contando toda mi vida con sus palabrasTelling my whole life with his words
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song
Sentí un rubor de fiebre, avergonzada por la multitudI felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd
Sentí que había encontrado mis cartas y las leía en voz altaI felt he'd found my letters and read each one out loud
Recé para que terminara, pero él seguía adelanteI prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on
Tocando mi dolor con sus dedosStrumming my pain with his fingers

Cantando mi vida con sus palabrasSinging my life with his words
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song
Contando toda mi vida con sus palabrasTelling my whole life with his words
Matándome suavementeKilling me softly

Tocando mi dolor con sus dedosStrumming my pain with his fingers
Cantando mi vida con sus palabrasSinging my life with his words
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song
Matándome suavemente con su canciónKilling me softly with his song
Contando toda mi vida con sus palabrasTelling my whole life with his words
Matándome suavemente, con sus palabrasKilling me softly, with his words
