Matándome suavemente con su canción

Killing Me Softly With His Song

rasgando 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 una buena canciónI heard he sang a good song
Escuche que tenia un estiloI heard he had a style
Y entonces vine a verloAnd so I came to see him
Para escuchar un ratoTo listen for a while
Y ahí estaba, este jovenAnd there he was, this young boy
Un extraño a mis ojosA stranger to my eyes

rasgando 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

Me sentí todo enrojecido por la fiebreI felt all flushed with fever
Avergonzado por la multitudEmbarrassed by the crowd
Sentí que encontró mis cartasI felt he found my letters
Y lee cada uno en voz altaAnd read each one out loud
Recé para que terminaraI prayed that he would finish
Pero él siguió adelanteBut he just kept right on

rasgando 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

Cantaba como si me conocieraHe sang as if he knew me
En toda mi oscura desesperaciónIn all my dark despair
Y luego miró a través de míAnd then he looked right through me
Como si yo no estuvieraAs if I wasn't there
Y siguió cantandoAnd he just kept on singing
Cantando claro y fuerteSinging clear and strong

rasgando 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

rasgando 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
