I'm just a little tin soldier in your hands
I'm good for nothing but to obey your commands
You'll never really love me, I know
So wind me up, let me go
I'm just your plaything till you see someone else
And then you'll leave me alone on the shelf
But even tin soldier have hearts don't you know
So wind me up, let me go
You don't really need me
You have hundred other toys
And teardrops don't look good
In the eyes of soldier boy
So pick me up and hold me one more time
That's just a consolation for this heart of mine
Whisper a sweet word to the one who loved you so
Then wind me up let me go
Then wind me up let me go
Let me go
