Last Christmas

Last Christmas, 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).

Last Christmas, 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).

Once bitten and twice 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 wouldn'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'll know you've fool me again.

Last Christmas, 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).

Crowded room, friends with tired eyes.

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.

The face of a lover with a fire in his heart,

a man undercover, but you tore me 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

(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,

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,

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,

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).
