Lyrics:

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)
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?
Oh, well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
'Merry 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 (whoa, baby), I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away (you gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
I gave you love, last Christmas (you love)
Right from the start (never find)
And you'll never find that love again
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover, but you tore (him apart) me apart
Ooh-hoo, now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again
Ooh, last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away (you gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (oh)
Last Christmas, (I gave you my heart) I gave you my heart
(The very next day, you gave it away) you gave it away
(This year, to save me from tears)
Oh, I'll give it to someone special
