Lyrics:

(Merry 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

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 eyes
Tell me baby, do you recognize me?
Well this is funny, 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 kiss 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

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, friends with tired eyes
Someone hiding from you, soul revived
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on

Face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover just tore me apart
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 I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
