embbaressed by the croud
I felt all flushed with fever
(chorus)
stranger to my eyes
and there he was this young boy
and listen for a while
and so I came to see him
I heard he had a style
I heared he sang a good song
with his words
with his words k**ing me softly
with his words telling my whole life
k**ing me softly
k**ing me softly with his words
singing my life with his words
strumming my pain with his fingers
(chorus)
I felt he found my letter
and read each out loud
I prayed that he would finish
but he just kept right on
(Chorus)
Wooaaaaaaaaaahhhaahhhaahh woaoaoaoaoaaaooaaaaooaaa
nan*llalalalala woa wawaaaooh laaa laa laaaa naaaaaaaaaaa
oooaaooooooaaooooooaaaaaaaoooooooooaoooooooo
(chorus)
