Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
Ill 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
Ill 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, its been a year
It doesnt 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 Ive been
But if you kissed me now
I know youd 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
Ill 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
Ill give it to someone special
Oh, oh, baby
A crowded room
Friends with tired eyes
Im 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
Now Ive found a real love. Youll 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
Ill 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
Ill give it to someone special
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
I gave you my heart
A man under cover, but you tore him apart
Maybe next year Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone special
Special
Someone
Someone
Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone special
Who give me something in return
Ill give it to someone—
Hold my heart and watch it burn
Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone special
I thought you were here to stay
How could you love me for a day
I thought you were someone special
Gave you my heart
Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone—
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
You gave it away
