killing me softly

Strumming my pain with his fingers
他用指尖撥動我心苦楚
Singing my life with his words
他用詞曲吟唱我的一生

他用歌聲將我溫柔處死
Killing me softly with his song
他用歌聲將我溫柔處死
Killing me softly with his song
他用言語道盡我的一生
Telling my whole life with his words
他用歌聲將我溫柔處死

我聽到他吟唱佳曲，風格迥異
Killing me softly with his song ...
我前去一睹其容，用心聆聽

目中只見翩翩少年，不曾謀面
I heard he sang a good song I heard he had a style.
他用指尖撥動我心苦楚
And so I came to see him to listen for a while.
他用詞曲吟唱我的一生

他用歌聲將我溫柔處死
And there he was this young boy a stranger to my eyes.
他用歌聲將我溫柔處死
Strumming my pain with his fingers
他用言語道盡我的一生
Singing my life with his words
他用歌聲將我溫柔處死

我臉頰潮紅羞怯於眾
Killing me softly with his song
他彷彿將我的心事一字一句公之於眾
Killing me softly with his song
我祈禱這一幕盡快結束，但他仍在繼續
Telling my whole life with his words
他用指尖撥動我心苦楚
Killing me softly with his song ...
他用詞曲吟唱我的一生
I felt all flushed with fever embarrassed by the crowd
他用歌聲將我溫柔處死

他用歌聲將我溫柔處死
I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud.
他用言語道盡我的一生

他用歌聲將我溫柔處死
I prayed that he would finish but he just kept right on ...
他歌唱彷彿知曉我那無盡的絕望
Strumming my pain with his fingers
他望向我身後，彷彿我是虛無一般
Singing my life with his words
他兀自吟唱，清晰而響亮

他用指尖撥動我心苦楚
Killing me softly with his song
他用詞曲吟唱我的一生
Killing me softly with his song
他用歌聲將我溫柔處死
Telling my whole life with his words
他用歌聲將我溫柔處死

他用言語道盡我的一生
Killing me softly with his song ...
他用歌聲將我溫柔處死
He sang as if he knew me in all my dark despair.

And then he looked right through me as if I wasnt there.
But he just came to singing singing clear and strong.
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 ...
