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 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 

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 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



[CHORUS]
