Bastille Lyrics

"Killing Me Softly With His Song (MTV Unplugged)"
(originally by Fugees)

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, stranger to my eyes

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

I felt all flushed with fever
Embarrassed by the crowd
I felt he found my letters
Then read each one out loud
I prayed that he would finish
But he just kept right on

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

Woah
Woah-oah-ah-ah-ah uh, uh
Woah, la
Woah, la (Ha, ha, ha, ha)
Laaaa
Woah, la
Woah, la
Laaaa
Laaaaaaaa

Strumming my pain
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

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
