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 (God or the after life as in commiting suicide)
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
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby
Do you recognize me? (whp does after you chewed on the shotgun Kurt Cobain style?)
Well, it's been a year (full of depression)
It doesn't surprise me (that people let you down and suicide is the only way out)
(Merry Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it (with the farewell letter)
With a note saying, "I love you, " I meant it (See!!!!!!)
Now, I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again (determined to take his life)
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
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes (at the morgue)
I'm hiding from you, and your soul of ice (his soul is gone now)
My god, I thought you were someone to rely on (God allows suicide)
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on (the one who they turned to but never listened to)
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart (shot himself in the heart)
A man under cover but you tore me apart (a dead man under a police blanket)
Now, I've found a real love you'll never fool me again (Jesus?)
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
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover but you tore him apart
Maybe next year I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special
