[Intro]
Ho, ho, ho

[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
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

[Verse 1]
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby, do you recognise me?
Well, it's been a year, 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 kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again, oh-oh-oh

[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)
[Bridge]
Oh, hey, yeah

[Build]
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

[Drop]
A face-on lover with a fire in her heart
A woman undercover, but you tore me apart
And now, I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again
Oh, last Christmas, I gave you my, gave you my heart
Oh, you gave it away
I'ma give it to someone special, special
Oh, last Christmas, I gave you my, gave you my heart
You gave it away
To save me from tears, I'll give it to someone special, special

[Outro]
Gave you my heart
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
