Chiquitita (Little One)

Chiquitita, tell me why your pain chains you today
In your eyes there's a shadow of great shame.
I wouldn't like to see you like this even though you want to dissimulate it
If it is that you're so sad why do you want to hide it
Chiquitita, you tell me on my shoulder, crying here
Count on me now so we can go/move on
I met you so secure and now you have a broken wing
Let me fix it, I want to see it healed
Chiquitita, you know very well
That shames come and go and disappear
You'll dance again and you'll be happy
Like flowers that flourish
Chiquitita, there's no need to cry
The stars shine for you there in the high skies
I want to see you smile to share your happiness, Chiquitita.
I want to share you happiness again, Chiquitita
Chiquitita, tell me why your pain chains you today
In your eyes there's a shadow of great shame.
I wouldn't like to see you like this even though you want to dissimulate it
If it is that you're so sad why do you want to hide it
Chiquitita, you know very well
That shames come and go and disappear
You'll dance again and you'll be happy
Like flowers that flourish
Chiquitita, there's no need to cry
The stars shine for you there in the high skies
I want to see you smile to share your happiness, Chiquitita.
I want to share you happiness again, Chiquitita

Chiquitita

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
