Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to set me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
2 Ruff:
Yo, Yo
Yo it's 98, still coming thru with the get down
But this time it's christmas, cold outside
Everybody looking good, even boms looking fly
And it's on like that, yo, it's time to represant
Tryin' to stay alive spread the love to your friends
We still shining, keep it nice this year
Yo, I try to pray for my dreams, prepare for next year
4 The Cause:
I gave you real love and you took it for granted
Promise you the world, and you couldn't even handle it
Sweets and the roses was yours, no doubt
Put you played me wrong and you got it right out
Yo, you know I shared some tears last time because of you
Now my mind is free, and the love is brand new
No more games, yo, it's time to move on
No more sleepless nights and the same old sad song
Chorus
Down Low:
Uh, uh, check it out

Remember last christmas and they times we slept

Next to a woman with a sence of life and personality
Sweetbox:
Yeah, on this day, I ______ I wanna say
You took my hear and gave it back, and run away
On christmas day, the bells are ringing, bring new life
Last year, this time, I know the tears I cry
Happiness and joy, love can fill my life
Someone special found them like an angel flies
This time last christmas I gave my heart
But this time everything is allright

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart,
A man undercover but you tore me apart,

When children chill and laughter's everywhere
Then you place a golden star on top of your tree

Waiting by the door for the man under the mistletoe
