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.

1. Once bitten then twice shy, I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye.
Tell me baby, do you recognize me?
Well if it's been (a year) it doesn't surprise me.

2. Happy christmas – T 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 …. (2x)

3. Crowded room – runs with tired eyes
(And) hiding from you and your solemn eyes.
My God! I thought you were someone to rely on
Me – I guess I was a shoulder to cry on.

4. But a face on a lover with a fire in his heart,
a man under cover but you tore me apart.
Ooh! Ooh! Now I've found a real love.
You'll never fool me again.

Last christmas … (2x)

5. A face on a lover with a fire in his heart,
a man under cover but you tore him apart.
Maybe next year I'll give it to someone,
I'll give it to someone special, special, someone …
