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 caught my eye Tell me, baby, do you recognize me? It's been a year, so it wouldn't surprise me "Merry Christmas," wrapped it up and sent it With a letter saying, "I love you," I meant it Now I know what a fool I've been If you kissed me now, yeah, you'd fool me again Last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day, you gave it away So this year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special See upcoming pop shows Get tickets for your favorite artists A crowded room, friends with tired eyes I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice My God, I thought you'd be someone to rely on Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on Face of a lover and a fire in his heart A man undercover, but you tore me apart Ooh-ooh Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again Said last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day, you gave it away Now this year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone special Now last Christmas, I gave you my heart But the very next day, you gave it away Now this year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone Give it to someone special
