[Chorus]
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
And the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten, twice shy
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby well do you recognize me?
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, you'd fool me again
[Chorus]
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 undercover, when you tore me apart
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again
[Chorus]
Gave you my heart
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
