Chiquitita

Little girl tell me why
your pain today chains me
in your eyes there's a shadow of great sorrow
I wouldn't want to see you like this
even if you try to hide it
if you're so sad
why do you want to keep it quiet

Little girl you know very well
that sorrows come and go and disappear
you'll dance again and be happy
like flowers that bloom

Little girl there's no need to cry
the stars shine for you up high
I want to see you smile to share
your joy little girl
I want to share your joy again
little girl

Little girl tell me
from my shoulder here crying
count on me now
to keep on loving
I met you so sure
and now you're broken
let me take care of you
I want to see you healed

Little girl you know very well
that sorrows come and go and disappear
you'll dance again and be happy
like flowers that bloom

Little girl there's no need to cry
the stars shine for you up high
I want to see you smile to share
your joy little girl
I want to share your joy again
little girl
I want to share your joy again
little girl
