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 eyes
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 kiss me now
I know you'll 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 crowded room and 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 girl under cover but you tore her apart
Maybe this year, Maybe this year,
I'll give it to someone special
Cause 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
And last Christmas...
And this year...
It won't be anything like, anything like
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
