Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special.
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Now I've found the real love, now I found
You'll never fool me again!
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Now I've found the real love, now I found
You'll never fool me again!
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special.
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
The very next day you gave it away
This year to save me the tears
I'll give it to someone special.

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
During the previous Christmas, I emotionally invested in you
The very next day you gave it away
Immediately after, you rejected my love
This year to save me the tears
This year, I don't want to cry over you
I'll give it to someone special.
I'll give my love to someone who deserves it
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
I found someone who is passionate and devoted to me
A man undercover but you tore me apart
You pretended to love me, but you hurt me deeply
Now I've found the real love, now I found
But now I have discovered true love
You'll never fool me again!
I won't let myself be deceived by you again
