Last Christmas 去年的聖誕
I gave you my heart 我把心交給了你
But the very next day 但就在隔天
You gave it away 你便將它丟棄
This year 今年...
To save me from tears 為了拭乾我的眼淚
I gave it to someone special... 我將把心交給一個特別的人
Once bitten 曾經受創
and twice shy 就不免心生恐懼而卻步
I keep my distance 我盡量保持距離
But you still catch my eyes 但你仍吸引著我的目光
Tell me baby 告訴我...
Do you recognize me? 你認得我是誰嗎?
Well, it's been a year... 那已經是一年前的事...
It doesn't surprise me. 你忘了我也不覺得奇怪...

Last Christmas 去年的聖誕
I wrapped it up and sent it 包裝我的心意並送給你
With a note saying 附上一張紙條寫上.
I Love You 我愛你
I meant it 我是認真的
Now I know, 現在我才知道
What a fool I've been 當初我是多麼地傻
But if you kissed me now 但若你這時來吻我
I know you'd fool me again 我知道我終又被你所愚弄

Last Christma 去年的聖誕
I gave you my heart 我把心交給了你
But the very next day 只是就在隔天
You gave it away 你便將它丟棄
This year 今年...
To save me from tears 為了不再掉眼淚
I gave it to someone special... 我的心給了一個特別的人

A crowded room 擁擠的舞池
Friends with tired eyes 身邊充滿迷夢般的眼神
I'm hiding from you 我在竭力躲避你
and your soul of ice 以及你那冷酷的靈魂
My god, I thought you were 老天,我曾幻想你是
someone to rely on me 多麼的倚賴我的人
I guess I was a shoulder to cry on 也以為我就是那個可讓你靠著的肩膀
A face on lover 愛人的面容
with a fire in his heart 燃著我內心的火
A man under cover 我刻意掩飾
But you torn me apart 你卻要把它拆穿
OH HO Now I've found a real love 現在我終於找到真愛
And you'll never fool me again 以後也不再受你的愚弄

Last Christmas 去年的聖誕
I gave you my heart 我把心交給了你
But the very next day 只是就在隔天
You gave it away 你便將它丟棄
This year 今年...




To save me from tears 為了不再掉眼淚
I gave it to someone special... 我的心給了一個特別的人.
