Last Christmas

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

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,

it doesn't surprise me.

"Happy Christmas"

I wrapped it up and sent it

with a note saying "I love you", 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,

friends with tired eyes

I'm hiding from you

and your soul of ice

I 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 under cover,

but you tore me apart.

Once bitten and twice shy,

I keep my distance,

but you still catch my eye
