[Hook:]
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

[Intro:]
Y'all didn't know Refugees was up in here
One time, Refugees up in here
We gon' do it like this
One time
We in the house

I heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a style
And so I came to see him and listen for a while
And there he was this young boy, a stranger to my eyes

[Can It Be All So Simple sample]

I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed 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...

[CLEF:]
Yo L-Boogie, take it to the bridge
[Fading:]
Strumming my pain
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
