Chiquitita, tell me whats wrong
youre 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 youre
oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita, tell me the truth
Im a shoulder you can cry on
your best friend
Im the one you must rely on
you were always sure of yourself
now I see youve 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 theyre leavin
youll 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
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 tumblin down
and your loves 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 youre
oh so sad, so quiet

Chiquitita
you and I know
how the heartaches
come and they go
and the scars theyre leavin
youll 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
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
