Toys
Gibb Robin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't tell me not to stare at you.
I see the danger in your eyes.
I would go anywhere with you:
into your private paradise.
into your bedroom point of view,
into the depths of hell for you.

I would lead where others would not try.
By your side I can't speak.
Think about it, don't worry.
Take a lifetime, don't hurry.
Doesn't matter what your game is.

I'd like to play with your toys.
I'd like to play with your toys.
Be one of your special friends.
One last emotion can bring.

I'd like to play with your toys.
I'd like to play with your toys.
Be one of your special friends.
One last emotion can bring.

Extraterrestial love affair,
into your secret hall of fame.
Pray for the sacred and the strong,
pray for the others gone insane.
Into your bedroom point of view,
into your private paradise.
Open the gates and let me through
into the depths of hell for you.

I would lead where no other man would try.
Oh by your side I can't speak.
Think about it, don't worry.
Take a lifetime, don't hurry.
Don't you blame me 'cause I love you.
What your game is, yeah.

I'd like to play with your toys.
I'd like to play with your toys.
Be one of your special friends.
One last emotion can bring.

Oh baby
Someday your love will be over me.
And I feel, and I feel
creatures of the night,
keepers of the faith.

I'd like to play with your toys.
I'd like to play with your toys.




Be one of your special friends.
One last emotion can bring...
