(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
