Chiquitita tell me
what's wrong
You're enchained
by your own sorrow
In your eyes
there is no hope
for tomorrow
How I hate to see
you like this
There is no way
you can deny it
I can see that
you're oh
so sad so quiet
Chiquitita
tell me the truth
I'm a shoulder
you can cry on
Your best friend
I'm the one
you must rely on
You were always
sure of yourself
Now I see
you've broken a feather
I hope we can
patch it up together
Chiquitita
you and I know
How the heartaches come
and they go
and the scars
they're leaving
You'll be dancing
once again and
the pain will end
You will have
no time for grieving
Chiquitita
you and I cry
But the sun is still
in the sky
and shining above you
Let me hear you sing
once more like
you did before
Sing a new song
Chiquitita
Try once more like
you did before
Sing a new song
Chiquitita
So the walls
came tumbling down
And your love's
a blown out candle
All is gone
and it seems
too hard to handle
Chiquitita
tell me the truth
There is no way
you can deny it
I see that
you're oh
so sad so quiet
Chiquitita
you and I know
How the heartaches come
and they go
and the scars
they're leaving
You'll be dancing
once again and
the pain will end
You will have
no time for grieving
Chiquitita
you and I cry
But the sun is still
in the sky
and shining above you
Let me hear
you sing once more
like you did before
Sing a new song
Chiquitita
Try once more
like you did before
Sing a new song
Chiquitita
Try once more
like you did before
Sing a new song
Chiquitita
