EXTRINITI Version Lyrics:
----------------------------------------
Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly, with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing 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, 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
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly, with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me, softly, with her song

I felt, all flushed with fever, embarrassed by the crowd
I felt she'd found, my letters, and read, each one, out loud
I prayed that she would finish, but she just kept right on
Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly, with her song
Telling my whole life, with her words
Killing me, softly, with her song

[x 3]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Strumming my pain with her fingers
Singing my life with her words
Killing me softly with her song
Killing me softly with her song
Telling my whole life with her words
Killing me, softly, with her words
