I heard she sang a good song I heard she had a style And so I came to see her and listen for a while And there she was this young girl A stranger to my eyes Strumming my pain with her fingers Singing my life with her words k**ing me softly with her song k**ing me softly with her song Telling my whole life, with her words k**ing me softly with her song I felt all flushed with fever Embarra**ed by the crowd I felt he found my letters and read each one out loud I prayed that he would finish But he just kept right on Strumming my pain with her fingers Singing my life with her words k**ing me softly with her song k**ing me softly with her song Telling my whole life, with her words k**ing me softly with her song She sang as if she knew me In all my dark despair And then she looked right through me as if I wasn't there And she just kept on singing Singing clear and strong Strumming my pain with her fingers Singing my life with her words k**ing me softly with her song k**ing me softly with her song Telling my whole life, with her words k**ing me softly with her song
