[Chorus]
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 (Gave you my heart)
The very next day, you gave it away (Gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears (Save me from tears)
I'll give it to someone special (Someone special)
[Verse 1]
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
(Merry Christmas) I wrapped it and sent it
With a note sayin', "I love you," and I meant it
Now, I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me right now, I know you'd fool me again
[Chorus]
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (Gave you my heart)
The very next day, you gave it away (Gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears (Save me from tears)
I'll give it to someone special (Someone special)
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (Gave you my heart)
The very next day, you gave it away (Gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears (Save me from tears)
I'll give it to someone special (Someone special)
[Post-Chorus]
Gave it away
Someone special
[Verse 2]
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hidin' from you and your soul of ice
My god, 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
You tried to tell me I was just a friend
Now, I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again
[Chorus]
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (Gave you my heart)
The very next day, you gave it away (Gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears (Save me from tears)
I'll give it to someone special (Someone special)
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart (Gave you my heart)
The very next day, you gave it away (Gave it away)
This year, to save me from tears (Save me from tears)
I'll give it to someone special (Someone special)
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah (Someone special)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (Someone special)
Woah, oh
Gonna give it to someone special
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Someone special
