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

special special 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 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 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 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

special special

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 under cover but you tore me apart

oh now

i've found a 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

last christmas

oh now i've found a real love

you'll never fool me again
