[Chorus]
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 (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 (Special)
Ooh-la-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la

[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

[Verse 2]
(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 kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again
[Chorus]
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 (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 (Special)

[Verse 3]
A crowded room
Friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding 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

[Verse 4]
A face on a lover with a fire in her heart
A girl under cover but you tore me apart, ooh-ooh
Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again
[Chorus]
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 (Special)

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away (Gave it away)
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special (Special)

[Outro]
A face on a lover with a fire in her heart (I gave you my heart)
A girl under cover but you tore me apart
Maybe next year I'll give it to someone (Special)
I'll give it to someone special
Ooh-la-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
Ooh-la-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
Ooh-la-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
Ooh-la-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
La-la, ah-ooh-la-la
