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

[Verse 1]
You told me that our love would be marching on
Hoorah, hoorah
You 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 tricked me
Everything you said you'd give me, you couldn't give me
Yeah, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
(Cause only) The only one who made me cry, is you, whoa, yeah
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 through the battle, oh)
My heart is safe with him
All my trust, I gave it to him (All my trust)
So I guess (I guess) I fell in love, (I feel in love) I fell in love with a toy soldier

[Bridge]
I let down my guard 'cause 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-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 (Oh)
So I guess I fell in love (Feel 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
