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 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

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

 

 

LOVElight

 

I’ve always hated my room
it’s so gloomy and dreary always too dark for the
windows just face the backyard
so I can’t understand how it’s happened
how everything’s changin’ this old dirty ceiling
seems a little whiter when you walked into the room
it all got so much brighter you must have a

Lovelight
everything around you is lovelight
’n I can feel your love anywhere baby, even when you’re not there
but lovelight
everything around you is lovelight
you’re shinin’ like a star in the night I won’t let you out of my sight
I don’t wanna lose you I don’t wanna lose your lovelight

How I remember the first time
we went to a movie we had decided
to meet on a corner downtown and I waited there
when you came up from behind then you kissed me
and the traffic seemed to get a little lighter
when you came into my life
it all got so much brighter you must have a

Lovelight
everything around you is lovelight
’n I can feel your love anywhere baby, even when you’re not there
but lovelight
everything around you is lovelight
you’re shinin’ like a star in the night I won’t let you out of my sight
I don’t wanna lose you I don’t wanna lose your lovelight

And I feel so good and I feel so fine and I know that you must have a lovelight

You got lovelight
’n I can feel your love anywhere baby, even when you’re not there
but lovelight
everything around you is lovelight you’re shinin’ like a star in the night
I won’t let you out of my sight I don’t wanna lose you I don’t wanna lose your lovelight

Everything about you is right let it glow and let it be bright
I don’t want to lose your lovelight shining like a star in the night
