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?
Well, it’s been a year,
it doesn’t surprise me…
I wrapped it up and sent it
with a note sayin’ “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,
but the very next day
you gave it away.

to save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special.

A crowded room,
friends with tired eyes,
I’m hiding from you
and your soul of ice.
Oh my, I thought you were 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,
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.

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart,

I’ll give it to someone,
I’ll give it to someone special, special.
Some one,
someone
I’ll give it to someone,
I’ll give it to someone,…
