"Last Christmas" lyrics

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
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 eye
Tell me, baby, do you recognize me?
It's been a year, it doesn't surprise me

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
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

"Merry Christmas" I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying, "I love you", I meant it ("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 (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'm giving it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'm giving it to someone special
