** 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

** repeat

Once bitten and twice shy

I keep my distance

But you still catch my eyes

Tell me baby do you recognize me

Well 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 lool I've been

But if you kissed me now

I know you'd fool me again

** repeat twice

A crowded a room Friends with tired eyes

I'm hiding from you And your soul of ice

My God 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

Now I've found a real love

You 'll never fool me agian

** repeat twice

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart

A man under cover but she tore him apart

Maybe next year I'll give it to someone

I'll give it to someone special

I'll give it to someone

I'll give it to someone special

Who will give me something in return

Hold my heart and watch it burn

I feel so unsure
As I take your hand
And lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all its sad goodbyes
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We'd hurt each other
With the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now who's gonna dance with me
Please stay
I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Was what I did so wrong
So wrong that you had to leave me alone?
