Demo ai wa mou koko niwa inai this year
Last Christmas futari nara negai wa kanau to shinjiteta
Mada koerarenai kimi wa ima demo special
Deatte kizuita yo honto wa boku mo sabishigari dato
Ne kimi wa oboete irukai? Futari de kawashita hajimete no kiss
Omoeba boku wa kimi niwa tabun omosugita yone
Last Christmas ima wa mada omoide ni nante dekinai yo
Demo ai wa mou koko niwa inai this year
Last Christmas futari nara negai wa kanau to shinjiteta
Mada koerarenai kimi wa ima demo special
Kanashimi mo setsunasa mo boku tachi ga ikiteru akashi
Ushinatte mite hajimete shitta taisetsu na mono taisetsu na hito
Mo ano koro niwa modorenai kimi no hohoemi wa modoranai (show me your smile)
Ooh ooh… Kono mune no itami o oboeteru
Last Christmas ima wa mada omoide ni nante dekinai yo
Demo ai wa mou koko niwa inai this year
Last Christmas futari nara negai wa kanau to shinjiteta
Mada koerarenai kimi wa ima demo special
Mo ano koro niwa modorenai kimi no hohoemi wa modoranai
Dakedo imademo kimi wa ima demo special
The lyrics of "Last Christmas" by The Cliffters And Friends are a reflection of the deep emotions that arise when one recalls memories of a past relationship during the holiday season. The song starts by admitting that even though it's been a year since the previous Christmas, the memories of that time are still fresh and strong. The singer seems to be feeling lonesome and missing someone special who is no longer there, making it difficult to relive the magic of the season. Despite this longing for a past love, the singer accepts that it's over, and they must move on. Essentially, they are saying that they cannot relive the memories of last Christmas, but the love they shared still exists, even if the person is no longer around.
The lyrics continue with a recollection of the first kiss and the feelings that came with it. There is hurt in the singer's voice, as they wonder if their partner even remembers this first moment. They also admit that they may have been too attached, recalling how they always think of their former partner. They end the song by stating that even though they cannot go back in time to relive Christmas's past, their former partner still holds a special place in their heart.
