Last Christmas

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 recognise 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," and 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, 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

Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh

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'm nothing but a shoulder to cry on

A face of a lover with a fire in his heart

A man undercover, but you tore me apart

Ooh-ooh

Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again

Oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh (this year, to save me from tears)

Oh oh oh oh oh (I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone)

A face of a lover with a fire in his heart (I gave you my)

A man undercover, but you tore him apart

Next year, I'll give it to someone

I'll give it to someone special
