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 kiss 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, 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 And friends with tired eyes I'm hiding from you and your soul all of ice My God I thought you were someone to rely on When me, I guess I was a shoulder to cry on A face on a lover with a fire in her heart, oh A girl on a cover, but you tore her apart Maybe this year Maybe this year 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, 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 Last Christmas This year Won't be anything like anything like 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 I'll give it to someone Last Christmas I wrapped it up and sent it Saying "I love you" I meant it Maybe this year Maybe this year I'll give it to someone special Last Christmas
