Ester Dean
Toy Soldier
[Intro]
So I guess I fell in love, with a toy soldier

[Verse 1]
He told me that our love would be marching on
Hoorah, hoorah
He told me that our love was mighty strong
Hoorah, hoorah
And guess I believed you, 'cause you were my baby
Why would I doubt you, when you said you loved me?
But I didn't know you were the enemy

[Pre-Chorus]
The only who made me cry, is you
And the only one I had to fight, is you
And it was you who told me, yeah

[Chorus]
He said, that I would never have to fight again
He said, that I would never have to cry again
He said he'd had been to the battlefield
My heart is safe with him
All my trust, I gave it to him
So I guess I fell in love with a toy soldier

[Verse 2]
You told me that you would take care of me, you lied, you lied
You told me that you was the best for me, you lied, you lied
'Cause you came up empty
I feel like you're tricked me
Everything you said you'd give me, you couldn't give me
Yeah, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause the only one who ever made me cry, is you
And the only one I had to fight, is you
And it was you who told me, yeah

[Chorus]
He said, that I would never have to fight again (That I would never have to, I would never have to fight)
He said, that I would never have to cry again (Oh baby)
He said he'd had been to the battlefield (We've been to the battlefield, oh)
My heart is safe with him
All my trust I gave it to him
So I guess I fell in love, I fell in love with a toy soldier

[Bridge]
I let down my guard because you were my guard
But who protects me now?
'Cause I gave you my heart and you tore it apart
Ooh, you let me down
Oh, baby

[Chorus]
He said, that I would never have to fight again (Never have to fight, oh yeah)
He said, that I would never have to cry again
He said he'd had been to the battlefield
My heart is safe with him
All my trust I gave it to him
So I guess I fell in love, with a toy soldier
[Outro]
I gave all my love to him, hoorah, hoorah
I gave all my love to him, hoorah, hoorah
