last Christmas I gave you my heart

but the very next day you gave it away

and this year to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone special

well last Christmas I gave you my heart

but the very next day you gave it away

and this year to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone

I'll give it to someone... special



so whoa... oh ohh ohh



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



Happy Christmas

I wrapped it up and sent it

with a letter saying I loved you

I meant it

now I know what a fool I've been

but if you kiss me now

I know you'll fool me again



last Christmas I gave you my heart

but the very next day you gave it away (you gave it away)

and 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

(you gave it away)

and this year to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone special (special)

special



so whoa.... ohh ohh ohhh

noo oooh



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



face on a lover with a fire in his heart

a man under cover when you tore me apart

ooh ooh, 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

(you gave it away)

and 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

(you gave it away)

and this year to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone (special)

I'll give it someone...



[chorus to end]



special



so whoa whoa whoa

ohh ohh ohh ohh

noo oooh



guilty feet, they got no rhythm

guilty feet, they got no rhythm

ooh ooh

now I've found a real love

you'll never fool me again
