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?

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

But now I know what a fool I've been

But if you kissed me, you'd fool me again



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, woah



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

Ooh, now, now that I found real love

You'll 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

I'll give it to someone special, woah



Gave you my heart

This year to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone special

Oh, oh, oh, oh, last Christmas
