Last Christmas
K.O.P Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
You gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special, ooh whoa
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
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
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
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
(I'll give it to someone special)

Line by Line Meaning
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
During the previous holiday season, I gave you my all and put all my emotions onto the line
But the very next day
However, immediately after that day
You gave it away
You decided to completely disregard my feelings and give them away to someone else
This year
During this year's holiday season
To save me from tears
To prevent heartache and anguish
I'll give it to someone special, ooh whoa
I choose to give my affection to someone who is truly deserving of it
Once bitten and twice shy
After being hurt before, I am hesitant to trust or open up to someone again
I keep my distance
I have been keeping my distance from you
But you still catch my eye
Despite this, I still find myself drawn to you
Tell me, baby
I am curious to know
Do you recognize me?
Do you remember our relationship from last year?
Well, it's been a year
It has been an entire year since we last saw each other
It doesn't surprise me
I am not surprised by this fact
Merry Christmas
Despite our past, I am still wishing you a joyful Christmas time
I wrapped it up and sent it
I have packaged up my heart and sent it to someone new
With a note saying, "I love you, " I meant it
I have expressed my true feelings for someone I truly care about
Now, I know what a fool I've been
I am aware of the foolishness of my previous actions
But if you kissed me now
If you were to make a romantic move on me right now
I know you'd fool me again
I am fully aware that you have a tendency to deceive and hurt me
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
In a packed room filled with friends who feel drained of energy
I'm hiding from you, and your soul of ice
I am actively avoiding you and your cold demeanor
My god, I thought you were
Oh my goodness, I used to think you were
Someone to rely on
A person I could trust and depend on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
I was apparently only there to listen to you when you were upset
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
As a passionate lover, I was burning with emotion
A man under cover but you tore me apart
I was a man concealing my true feelings, and you completely destroyed my emotional stability
Ooh now, I've found a real love
Now, I have discovered someone who truly reciprocates my love
You'll never fool me again
You will never be able to manipulate me or take advantage of me again
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
During the previous holiday season, I gave you my all and put all my emotions onto the line
But the very next day
However, immediately after that day
You gave it away
You decided to completely disregard my feelings and give them away to someone else
This year
During this year's holiday season
To save me from tears
To prevent heartache and anguish
I'll give it to someone special
I choose to give my affection to someone who is truly deserving of it

Luke 17:1
And he said to his disciples, “Temptations to sin are sure to come, but woe to the one through whom they come!
better stop producing / uploading / watching "music videos".. (or similar videos, pics, profile pictures, thumbnails, title names, headlines, usernames + harmful comments, bad words, lies, disrespect, harmful lyrics etc! on social media + everywhere else too.
"Temptations to sin" / seduction etc. must stop)

I cry so hard when I hear this song. I lost my husband to cancer in APRIL 2018 ,and will Never have another Christmas with him.
He had just turned 64 .
He never lived to enjoy his retirement years. We looked do forward to th S t day when we would spend everyday together. He was the love of my life and my soul mate for 44 years.
He is gone forever.
It is now March 2024.
My husband had the most beautiful face I had ever seen, I loved looking at his,face and his beautiful brown eyes.
George looks so much like my husband.
My husband also had a,beautiful personality And was so kind and thoughtful.
When I look at Georges face I see my husband.
May George be in heaven where I know my husband is. hugs and kisses
