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 specialLast 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 specialOnce 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 doesn't surprise me
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 againLast 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 specialLast 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 specialA 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 onA face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore me apart
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me againLast 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 specialLast 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 specialA face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore him apart
Maybe next year I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special
