Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears,
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears,
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby, do you recognize me?
It's been a year, it wouldn't surprise me
"Happy Christmas" - I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you," I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
If you kissed me now, you know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears,
I'll give it to someone special
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My god, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore him apart
Now I've found a real love
You'll never fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears,
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears,
I'll give it to someone special
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore him apart
I found a real love
You'll never fool me
You fool me, you fooled me again
Like you did last Christmas
You'll never fool me again
Like you did Christmas
A face on a lover, a man under cover
Found a real lover, found a real lover
Found a real lover, never fool me again
Last Christmas
