Killing Me Softly with His Song


Chorus:
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song

I heard he sang a good song I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him to listen for a while
And there he was this young boy a stranger to my eyes
Repeat chorus

I felt all flushed with fever embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on
Repeat chorus

He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair
And then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there
But he just came to singing singing clear and strong
Repeat chorus

He was strumming oh he was singing my song
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Killing me softly with his song

Roberta Cleopatra Flack (born February 10, 1937[1] or 1939[2]) is an American singer, and musician who is notable for jazz, Pop, R&B, and folk music. She is best known for her classic #1 singles "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face", "Killing Me Softly with His Song", and "Feel Like Makin' Love"; and for "Where Is the Love" and "The Closer I Get to You", two of her many duets with the late Donny Hathaway.

Flack was the first to win the Grammy Award for Record of the Year two consecutive times. "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" won at the 1973 Grammys and "Killing Me Softly with His Song" won at the 1974 Grammys. She remains the only solo artist to have accomplished this feat, and only U2, who did it in 2001 with "Beautiful Day" and in 2002 with "Walk On", has done it since.
