Inspiration for a scene in A Song for You.

Killing Me Softly With His Song
(Roberta Flack)

Chrous:
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 and listen for a while
And there he was this young boy a stranger to my eyes

Chorus

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

Chorus

He sang as if he knew me in all by dark despair
And then he looked right through me as if I wasn't there
And he just kept on singing
Siging clear and strong

Chorus

He was strumming my pain
He was singing my life
Killing me softly with his song
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life in his words
Killing me softly with his song
