Strumming my face with his fingers
singing my life with his words
killing me softly with his song(2)
tearing my whole life with his words
killing me softly with his song.
1. 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 stood this young boy
a stranger to my eyes
Strumming..............song.
2. I felt all flushed with fever
embarrassed by the crowd.
I felt he found my letters
and read each one aloud
I prayed that he would finish
but he just kept right on
Strumming..........song
3. 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
and he just kept on singing
singing clear and strong
Strumming .................song
