[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
[CHORUS:]
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 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]
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
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
[CHORUS x2]
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart A man under cover buy you tore him apart Maybe next year I'll give it to someone I'll give it to someone special.
