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 doesn't surprise me
Happy 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 kissed me now I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This yeart to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special - special
A 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 on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A girl under cover but you tore me apart
Oooh
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
Happy 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
Who'll give me something in return
Oh my heart it was young
Oooh
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart -
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 - special
