My heart shattered, the pieces scattered up on the floor
And never before this moment have I felt so broken
How can I be like this, you had no more use for me
Yet somehow, you still hold my heart as your eternal token?

I feel that I'm just a broken toy, tossed away over in the corner
Thrown aside and forgotten for something that is shiny and new
I'm hurting but you do not understand that you could fix it
In your hands lies all the power
Your heart and soul contain the glue.

A chance untaken leaves loving words lost in translation
If you just give a little love the toy could be pieced back together
If you'd only take a moment, look and pick the toy up once more
If using a little patience to mend it you'll see that the broken toy is better.

Yes, just go quickly to the dark corner in which the broken toy lies
Pick it up gently, this broken toy wishes to be retrieved
With just a little working and some true compassion
You may give back some life, the broken toy may once again breathe.

Hidden spaces you'll see can find, safely tuck your toy away
So you can prevent the chance of any more harm being done
Just a single moment of caring and true tenderness
The moment you became the toys repairs, I knew that you were the one.

Isaac living with hope, for this broken toys wish was granted
Just don't stare for too long or its brightness will leave you blinded
There's light illuminating from within the soul of this once broken toy
Did you so gently retrieve your fixed, proving to this toy that love isn't always one sided.

This broken toy you have made almost like brand new
You can only see faint lines from it being broken into pieces
Does broken toys no longer broken at all, thanks to your hands
And now this meant to toy will remain yours throughout all the seasons.
