Last Christmas

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
And then the very next day you gave it away
Oh, this year, to save me from tears
I give it to somebody special

Oh, last Christmas, I gave you my heart
And then the very next day you gave it away
Oh, this year, to save me from tears
I give it to somebody special

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance, you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year it wouldn't surprise me

(Merry Christmas!) I wrapped that 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
And I'll say

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
And then the very next day you gave it away
Oh, this year, to save me from tears
I give it to somebody special

Crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I keep on hiding from you, and your soul of ice
My god, I thought you were someone I can rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder you could cry on

Face on a lover with a fire in his heart
Got a man under cover but you tore me apart
Now I know, but now I've found a love
You'll never fool me again, I'll say

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
And then the very next day you gave it away
Oh, this year, to save me from tears
I give it to somebody special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, I'll save me from tears
And I give it to somebody, give it to somebody

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
Then the very next day you gave me away
But I'm gonna save my tears
And I give it to somebody special, ooh

I'm gonna give it to somebody special
