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 catch my eye.
Tell me, baby,
Do you recognize me?
Well,
It’s been a year,
It doesn’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 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 year
To save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone 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 man under cover but you tore me apart, ooh-hoo.
Now I’ve found a real love, you’ll never fool me again.
This Christmas I’ll give you my heart
And I’ll hear you say, «I won’t give it away»
Next year you’ll still be so dear,
You’ll still be that someone special
