LYRICS::::::::::::Step by step, heart to heart,
Left right left,
We all fall down like toy soldiers.

It wasn't my intention to mislead you,
It never should have been this way.
What can I say?
It's true, I did extend the invitation,
I never knew how long you'd stay.

When you hear temptation call,
It's your heart that takes, takes a fall.
Won't you come out and play with me

Step by step, heart to heart,
Left right left,
We all fall down like toy soldiers.
Bit by bit torn apart, we never win,
But the battle wages on for toy soldiers.

It's getting hard to wake up in the morning,
My head is spinning constantly.
How can it be
How could I be so blind to this addiction?
If I don't stop the next one's gonna be me.

Only emptiness remains, it replaces all, all the pain.
Won't you come out and play with me

Step by step, heart to heart,
Left right left,
We all fall down like toy soldiers.
Bit by bit torn apart, we never win,
But the battle wages on for toy soldiers.

Only emptiness remains, it replaces all, all the pain.
Won't you come out and Play with me?

Step by step, heart to heart,
Left right left,
We all fall down like toy soldiers.
Bit by bit torn apart, we never win,
But the battle wages on for toy soldiers.

Step by step, heart to heart,
Left right left,
We all fall down like toy soldiers.
Bit by bit torn apart, we never win,
But the battle wages on for toy soldiers.

LETRA::::::::::::::::::::Paso a paso, corazón a corazón,
Izquierda derecha izquierda,
Todos caemos como soldados de juguete.

No era mi intención engañarte,
No debió de ser de esta manera
¿Qué puedo decir?
Es verdad, amplié la invitación,
Nunca supe cuanto tiempo te quedarías.

Cuando escuchas a la tentación llamarte
Es tu corazón el que cae
¿No vendrás a jugar conmigo?

Paso a paso, corazón a corazón,
Izquierda derecha izquierda,
Todos caemos como soldados de juguete.
Pedazo a pedazo, destrozados, nunca ganamos,
Pero la batalla paga por soldados de juguete.

Se vuelve difícil despertar por la mañana,
Mi cabeza da vueltas constantemente.
¿Cómo puede ser?
¿Cómo pude ser tan ciega y no ver esta adicción?
Si no paro esto la siguiente seré yo

Solo el vacío permanece, substituye todo, el dolor.
¿No vendrás a jugar conmigo?

Paso a paso, corazón a corazón,
Izquierda derecha izquierda,
Todos caemos como soldados de juguete.
Pedazo a pedazo, destrozados, nunca ganamos,
Pero la batalla paga por soldados de juguete.

Solo el vacío permanece, substituye todo, el dolor.
¿No vendrás a jugar conmigo?

Paso a paso, corazón a corazón,
Izquierda derecha izquierda,
Todos caemos como soldados de juguete.
Pedazo a pedazo, destrozados, nunca ganamos,
Pero la batalla paga por soldados de juguete.

Paso a paso, corazón a corazón,
Izquierda derecha izquierda,
Todos caemos como soldados de juguete.
Pedazo a pedazo, destrozados, nunca ganamos,
Pero la batalla paga por soldados de juguete.

Cuando escuchas a la tentación llamarte

Es tu corazón el que cae

¿No vendrás a jugar conmigo?

[goticamedieval009]

When you hear temptation call,

It's your heart that takes, takes a fall.

Won't you come out and play with me

Creative way to talk about addiction, brilliant.

What I like about Martika's Toy Soldiers is that liking it was this great accident...it happened as a kid, when i was never really paying attention...then it struck a chord within me when i was quiet....like a great philosophic escapism on what it means to understand
