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)      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, 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 (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 (I'll give it 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 (save me from tears)   I'll give it to someone special (I'll give it someone special)      Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum bumx2      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 (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 (ooh ohh)   Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again      Last christmas   I gave you my heart (gave you my heart)   But the very next day (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      Last christmas   I gave you my heart   But the very next day you (you gave me away) gave it away   This year   To save me from tears   I'll give it to someone special (special)      Gave you my heart
