Killing Me Softly with Her Song - Johnny Mathis

Strummin' my pain with her fingers Singin' my life with her words Killin' me softly with her song Killin' me softly with her song Tellin' my whole life with her words Killin' me softly with her song I heard she sang a good song I heard she had a style And so I came to see her To listen for a while And there she was this young girl A stranger to my eyes Strummin' my pain with her fingers Singin' my life with her words Killin' me softly with her song Killin' me softly with her song Tellin' my whole life with her words Killin' me softly with her song I felt all flushed with fever Embarrassed by the crowd I felt she found my letters And read each one aloud, oh I prayed that she would finish But she just kept right on Strummin' my pain with her fingers Singin' my life with her words Killin' me softly with her song Killin' me softly with her song Tellin' my whole life with her words Killin' me softly with her song

It's 2 a.m., hear the cellular ringin' Got the curious feelin' you're fendin' for love But the thing is, we haven't spoken for weeks I love you bad, that's the problem occurrin' Better love I deserve, and I'm hurtin' But sadly, I worship every moment we meet So you take and you take 'cause you know you can And I chase as you're chasin' another man Try to break, see your face and I know that I can't Oh, you're killin' me You're not makin' it easy (ah-ah-ah) Too busy deceivin' and cheatin' and lyin' and competin' To know how lucky you are You're killin' me I just want you to free me (ah-ah-ah) And though I am cryin' and bleedin' and barely breathin' I can't let go of your heart I take your call, you say, "What's the matter?" Then you lie to me faster and faster, you're such a good actor I hear your car in the driveway Now you're tossin' a rock at my windowpane Said, "I don't wanna talk, just go away" But you claw at the locks 'til I let you invade Oh, you're killin' me (killin') You're not makin' it easy (ah-ah-ah) Too busy deceivin' and cheatin' and lyin' and competin' To know how lucky you are You're killin' me (killin') I just want you to free me (ah-ah-ah) And though I am cryin' and bleedin' and barely breathin' I can't let go of your heart I wanna die, but you keep me alive You're killin' me, you're killin' me I wanna die, but you keep me alive You're killin' me, you're killin' me I wanna die, but you keep me alive You're killin' me, you're killin' me Fight to survive, oh, love of my life You're killin' me Oh-oh, you're killin' me (killin') You're not makin' it easy (ah-ah-ah) Too busy deceivin' and cheatin' and lyin' and competin' To know how lucky you are (oh) You're killin' me (killin') I just want you to free me (ah-ah-ah) And though I am cryin' and bleedin' and barely breathin' I can't let go of your heart I wanna die, but you keep me alive You're killin' me (killin'), you're killi' me (killin', oh-oh) I wanna die, but you keep me alive No, I can't let go of your heart You're killin' me

You put a bullet in my heart Every time you look at me And it gets worse when we're apart So I need you right next to me And I don't wanna fall asleep 'Cause right here is better than my dreams That kind of love that makes you weak I can't barely breathe 'Cause your love is killing me And it's a habit I should break But I wouldn't change a thing And I wish you could feel my pain 'Cause your love is killing me 'Cause your love is killing me 'Cause your love is killing me 'Cause your love is killing me You push me until I break Ache in places can't explain I let you walk all over me You're the torture I won't free Cross my heart and hope to die It's a pain I won't deny You're one thing I wouldn't change Tell me, do you feel the same? 'Cause your love is killing me And it's a habit I should break But I wouldn't change a thing And I wish you could feel my pain 'Cause your love is killing me ('Cause your love is killing me) And I wish you could feel my pain 'Cause your love is killing me 'Cause your love is killing me 'Cause your love is killing me 'Cause your love is killing me 'Cause your love is killing me (Your love is killing me, me, me, me) (Love is killing me, me, me, me) (Love is killing me) And I wish you could feel my pain 'Cause your love is killing me

Long night, wake up Tears in your makeup Cry in the kitchen Quiet conviction Say that you're leaving Think you don't need me Well, that's probably true but I still need you 'cause I'm a mess these days No, you don't have to stay Just take me with you when you go, go, go I know the things I said before, oh no Don't let it come between us Just hold on to the feeling When the distance starts to grow, grow, grow Just take me with you when you go Six weeks, six months I forget how long I kept you waiting Testing your patience Our hearts don't break They just rearrange Cover the bruises Try to get through this, but I'm a mess these days No, you don't have to stay Just take me with you when you go, go, go I know the things I said before, oh no Don't let it come between us Just hold on to the feeling When the distance starts to grow, grow, grow Just take me with you when you go Deep down in your soul It's hard to be alone And I'm I know, sometimes Just take me with you when you go, go, go I know the things I said before, oh no Don't let it come between us Just hold on to the feeling When the distance starts to grow, grow, grow Just take me with you when you go
