Killing Me Softly

Matándome en voz baja

Killing Me Softly

Rasguando mi dolor con los 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
Contar toda mi vida con sus palabras
Telling my whole life with his words
Matándome suavemente con su canción
Killing me softly with his song

Escuché que cantaba una buena canción
I heard he sang a good song
Escuché que tenía un estilo
I heard he had a style
Así que vine a verlo
And so I came to see him
Escuchar un rato
To listen for a while
Y ahí estaba, este joven muchacho
And there he was, this young boy
Un extraño a mis ojos
A stranger to my eyes

Rasguando mi dolor con los 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
Contar 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 enrojecida de fiebre
I felt all flushed with fever
Avergonzado por la multitud
Embarrassed by the crowd
Sentí que había encontrado mis cartas
I felt he'd found my letters
Y lee cada uno en voz alta
And read each one out loud
Recé para que terminara
I prayed that he would finish
Pero se mantuvo justo en
But he just kept right on

Rasguando mi dolor con los 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
Contar toda mi vida con sus palabras
Telling my whole life with his words
Matándome suavemente
Killing me softly

Rasguando mi dolor con los 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
Contar toda mi vida con sus palabras
Telling my whole life with his words
Matándome suavemente, con sus palabras
Killing me softly, with his words
