Killing Me Softly

Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos Strumming my pain with his fingers Cantando mi vida con sus palabras Singing my life with his words Matándome suavemente con su canción Killing me softly with his song Matándome suavemente con su canción Killing me softly with his song Contando mi vida entera con sus palabras Telling my whole life with his words Matándome suavemente, con su canción Killing me softly, with his song

Oí que cantaba una buena canción, oí que tenía un estilo I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style Y así vine a verlo, y a escuchar un rato And so I came to see him, and listen for a while Y allí estaba, este joven, un extraño a mis ojos And there he was, this young boy, a stranger to my eyes

Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos Strumming my pain with his fingers Cantando mi vida con sus palabras Singing my life with his words Matándome suavemente con su canción Killing me softly with his song Matándome suavemente con su canción Killing me softly with his song Contando toda mi vida con sus palabras Telling my whole life with his words Matándome suavemente, con su canción Killing me softly, with his song

Me sentí toda sonrojada por la fiebre, avergonzada por la multitud I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd Sentí que encontró mis cartas, y leyó cada una en voz alta I felt he found my letters, and read each one out loud Recé para que terminara, pero él siguió I prayed that he would finish, but he just kept right on

Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos Strumming my pain with his fingers Cantando mi vida con sus palabras Singing my life with his words Matándome suavemente con su canción Killing me softly with his song Matándome suavemente con su canción Killing me softly with his song Contando mi vida entera con sus palabras Telling my whole life with his words Matándome suavemente, con su canción Killing me softly, with his song

Rasgueando mi dolor con sus dedos Strumming my pain with his fingers Cantando mi vida con sus palabras Singing my life with his words Matándome suavemente con su canción Killing me softly with his song Matándome suavemente con su canción Killing me softly with his song Contando mi vida entera con sus palabras Telling my whole life with his words Matándome suavemente, con su canción Killing me softly, with his song
