Killing Me Softly
X-Factor All Star Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey! 待って lady, what time is it now?
振り返る君 wow! Sexy body
秒殺でハートに "Superman" dive!
予想以上に baby, bad girl

I've been going out of my mind
熱い視線に 瞳奪われる
What you gonna do? oh
Shall we go to dance with me? Party tonight
僕のモノにしたい君を let me believe

君の腰つき見る度
もういっそ killing me! Ah, ah
甘く香る匂い
Baby, yo killing me! Ah, ah
僕だけ見てればいい
Yo, yo, yo killing me!
Yo! Killing me! Killing me! Ah, ah
今すぐ killing me!

とろけそうな唇に
狂ってみたい you're lady spider
ここへおいでよ V.I.P
アクセスコードなんて要らない

Please don't stop! Turn it up music (music)
夢が覚めないように drink it down
What do you want?
Let's go to the floor to dance 夜明けまで
そのままで僕と take you down and down

君の腰つき見る度
もういっそ killing me! Ah, ah
甘く香る匂い
Baby, yo killing me! Ah, ah
僕だけ見てればいい
Yo, yo, yo killing me!
Yo! Killing me! Killing me! Ah, ah
今すぐ killing me!

叶うなら fall in love
でもキミは dangerous
あぁもうじれったいや
壊れるしかない
乱されて keep on shake
無茶苦茶に body on me
Hey baby, look at me! Look at me! Look at me!
Killing me!

Killing me! uh huh uh huh
Killing me

君の腰つき見る度
もういっそ killing me! Ah, ah
甘く香る匂い
Baby, yo killing me! Ah, ah
僕だけ見てればいい
Yo, yo, yo killing me!
Yo! Killing me! Killing me! Ah, ah
早く killing me!

君の腰つき見る度
もういっそ killing me! Ah, ah
甘く香る匂い
Baby, yo killing me! Ah, ah
僕だけ見てればいい
Yo, yo, yo killing me!




Yo! Killing me! Killing me! Ah, ah
もういっそ killing me! (killing me)

how could you not love her? her swag on stage is so mesmerizing. and how deep she sings is unbelievable.

@armando_lopez_1301

Hi @victoria adams how are you?

@monilozz

My eyes watered during this, her singing had so much heart and soul in it. Just simply amazing 💗

@sondrabroom7468

I love her voice so much

@reznog12

In my opinion, Zhavia's performance segment from 1:20 to 2:00 (40 seconds) is arguably the best I have ever heard in a live performance. The whole performance was awesome, I just really, really loved that 40 second segment. This is coming for an avid and diverse music enthusiast who listens to Jazz, Classical Music, Hip Hop, R&B, Soul, Reggae, dancehall, Soca, Calypso music, Afro Beat, Soukous, and so much more. She took Lauren Hill's song and added her own twist to it! Creativity at it's best!

@QuantumCANDRI

I agree. I always find myself listening to this version regularly. They did a studio version cover but didn’t hit as hard as this one. She crushed it! Next level stuff

@dr.jhanvipatel2007

She sings like she owns the stage...she is the queen of this stage...proudly 😍

@concertslivehd3336

I love how she does the intro... this was the best performance to me , and “say something” was amazing too...

@silarte22

Uma das melhores interpretações que já vi dessa música! Super original!

@shanonwilson2900

Im a grown man and Part 1:30 to 1:45 I lost it. The GOOSEBUMPS that came over my body with Diddy at the end. I can reply that part all day. She knew she was killing too. Even started grooving alittle bit. Not to mention my eyes getting watery.
