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, special
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 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
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, special
Take back the holly and mistletoe
Silver bells on a string
If I wrote a letter to Santa Claus
I would ask for just one thing
You are the angel atop my tree (Top my tree)
You are my dream come true (Dream come true)
Santa can't bring me what I need
Cos all I want for Christmas is you
Cos all I want for Christmas is you
You are the angel that tops my tree
(Last Christmas I gave you my heart away)
You are my dream come true
(But the very next day you gave it away)
Santa can't bring me what I need
(This year, to save me from tears)
'Cuz all I want for Christmas is you
(I'll give it to someone special)
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
Last Christmas
You gave it away
Last Christmas
All I want for Christmas is you
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
Last Christmas
But you gave it away
Last Christmas
So, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special, this year
