I heard she rigged some tight ropes,
I heard she had a style
And so I came to see her, to hang there for a while
And there she was, this young girl, staring me right in my eyes
Rigging my pain with her fingers (one time, one time)
Revealing my soul with her cords (two times, two times)
Killing me softly with her ropes
Killing me softly with her ropes
Revealing my whole soul with her cords
Killing me softly with her ropes
I felt all flushed with fever, embarrassed before the crowd
I felt she'd found my weakness and made me shout out loud
I prayed that she would finish, but she just kept right going
Rigging my pain with her fingers (one time, one time)
Revealing my soul with her cords (two times, two times)
Killing me softly with her ropes
Killing me softly with her ropes
Revealing my whole soul with her cords
Killing me softly with her ropes
(Woah Woah-oah-ah-ah-ah uh, uh La-la-la, la, la, la Woah, la Woah, la (ha, ha, ha, ha) La-ah-ah-ah-ah...
Rigging my pain with her fingers (yes, she was revealing my soul)
Revealing my soul with her cords
Killing me softly with her ropes
Killing me softly with her ropes
Revealing my whole soul with her cords
Killing me softly with her ropes
She pulled and threw me right into dark despair
And then she looked right at me with pain i had to bear
But there she was this stranger, rigging thight and strong
Rigging my pain with her fingers (yes, she was revealing my soul)
Revealing my soul with her cords
Killing me softly with her ropes
Killing me softly with her ropes
Revealing my whole soul with her cords
Killing me softly with her ropes Thank you _Peter_ for the lovely song you write for me ^^
