Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me baby
Do you recognize me
It's been a year rolling
It doesn't surprise me
Merry Christmas
I wrapped it up and sent it
Merry Christmas
I loved you and I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again
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
and friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you
and your soul of ice
I get thought you were
someone to rely on
Me I guess
I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with
a fire in his heart
A man on a cover
but you tore me apart
Merry Christmas
Now I've found a real love
you'll never fool me again
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
