Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
Ill 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
Ill give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby
Do you recognize me?
Well, its been a year
It doesnt surprise me
Happy Christmas
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying «I love you»
I meant it
Now I know what a fool Ive been
But if you kissed me now
I know youd 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
Ill 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
Ill give it to someone special
Oh, oh, baby
A crowded room
Friends with tired eyes
Im 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 Ive found a real love. Youll never 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
Ill 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
Ill give it to someone special
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
I gave you my heart
A man under cover, but you tore him apart
Maybe next year Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone special
Special
Someone
Someone
Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone special
Who give me something in return
Ill give it to someone—
Hold my heart and watch it burn
Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone special
I thought you were here to stay
How could you love me for a day
I thought you were someone special
Gave you my heart
Ill give it to someone—
Ill give it to someone—
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
You gave it away
They’ve been sayin, you’re sophisticated
They’re complaining — over-educated
You are saying all the words I’m dreaming
Say it after me
Say it after me
They will blame us, crucify, and shame us
We can’t help it if we are a problem
We are trying hard to get your attention
Climbing up your wall.
Climbing up your wall.
Don’t go there cause you’ll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
But then it don’t make sense
when you’re trying hard to do the right thing
But without recompense
And then you did something wrong and they said it was great
And now you don’t know how you could ever complain
Because you’re all confused cause you want me to
But then you want me to do it the same as you
You were waiting for the elevator
You were saying all the words I’m dreaming
No more asking, questions or excuses
Information’s here, here and everywhere
Don’t go there cause you’ll never return
I know you think of me when you think of her
But then it don’t make sense
when your trying hard to do the right thing
But without recompense
And then you did something wrong and they said it was great
And now you don’t know how you could ever complain
Because you’re all confused cause you want me to
But then you want me to do….it the same way as you
But I don’t, I don’t want anything
I know it’s not, it’s not your fault
I don’t want anyone
As I do in life for you
Stockholders
Same shit different life
I‘ll get it right some time
Maybe not tonight
