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 (how it hurts to see you cry and how it hurts to see you sad) 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 leavin' You'll be dancin' once again And the pain will end You will have no time for grievin'
Chiquitita You and I cry But the sun is still in the sky And shining above you (even though we cry the sun is shining in the sky, so) Let me hear you sing once more Like you did before (let me hear you sing some more the way you used to do before) Sing a new song Chiquitita Try once more like you did before Sing a new song Chiquitita
So the walls came tumblin' 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 leavin' (you and I we know how all the heartaches come and go) You'll be dancin' once again And the pain will end (and you'll be dancing once again, and all the pain you take will end) You will have no time for grievin'
Chiquitita You and I cry But the sun is still in the sky And shining above you (even though we cry the sun is shining in the sky, so) Let me hear you sing once more Like you did before (let me hear you sing some more the way you used to do 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
