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 as shy
I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby, do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year,.it doesn't surprise me
"Merry 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
But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (gave you my heart)
But the very next day, you gave it away (you gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (special)
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (gave you my heart)
But the very next day, you gave it away (you gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (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 her heart
A woman under cover, but you tore me apart
Ooh-ooh-ooh
And now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (I gave you my heart)
But the very next day, you gave it away (oh, you gave
it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I’m gon’ give it to someone special (special)
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (I gave you my heart)
But the very next day, you gave it away (you gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special, special
A face on a lover with a fire in her heart (gave you my heart)
A woman under cover, but you tore me apart
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
Ooh-ooh, oh
I'll give it to someone special (special)
Hmm
