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 so it doesn't 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 i've been

but if you kissed me now know you'd fool me again oh

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

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 of ice

my god i thought you were someone to rely on me

yes 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

singing oh yeah

now i've found a real love

you'll never fool me again oh

last christmas i gave you my heart

gave you my heart

but the very next day you gave it away 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

gave you my heart

but the very next day you gave it away this year

here to save me from tears

i'll give it to someone special

face on a lover

with a fire in his heart

a man under cover but you tore me apart

i'll give it to someone special
