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 beaten and twice shy I kept 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 wrote 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,
friends with starry eyes I'm hiding from you and your cellophane
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me?
I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on the lava with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Ooh,
never 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
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
Maybe
next year
I'll give it to someone,
I'll give it to someone special
Special
I'll give it to someone,
I'll give it to someone special
I'll give it to someone special
