Toy Soldier

So, I guess I fell in love with a toy soldier.
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!
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...
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 battle field, 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.
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!
Cause the only one who made me cry, is you!
And the only one I had to fight, is you!
And it was you who told me...
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 battle field, 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.
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!
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 battle field, 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.
I gave all my love to him. Hoorah. Hoorah.
I gave all my love to him... Hoorah!
Hoorah!
