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 year at Christmas I gave you my heart
_____
But already the next day you threw it away
_____
This year it's clear I'm gonna spare myself the tears
_____
My heart will go to someone else
_____
Last year at Christmas, ice-cold weather
_____
I wander through the streets, tinsel in my hair
_____
Stomachache from the Christmas goose
_____
Shines the full Christmas glow
_____
But I'm really not in the mood to celebrate
Because I've lost everything
Everything beautiful and good
_____
Still can't believe
_____
I almost stuck myself with a Christmas bauble
_____
Last year at Christmas I gave you my heart
_____
But already the next day you threw it away
_____
This year it's clear I'm gonna spare myself the tears
_____
My heart will go to someone else
_____
Last year at Christmas
_____
I slaughter my piggy bank
_____
And think this just can't be true
_____
I wanted so badly to give you something really special
_____
But at those prices that's out of the question
_____
Sure, you always ignite a real fire of love in me
_____
But Chanel perfume's simply too pricey for me
_____
I wanna give you love, man
_____
I hope I'll think of something, ya know
_____
Last year at Christmas I gave you my heart
_____
But already the next day you threw it away
_____
This year it's clear I'm gonna spare myself the tears
_____
My heart will go to someone else
_____
At the Christmas market I see a stall
_____
With pretty colorful gingerbread hearts
_____
They look really funny and they're crazy cheap too
_____
I go up to the saleswoman
_____
And say I want one of those
_____
It said 'You sweet mouse' on it
_____
When I think about it today
_____
I cry all over my pillow
_____
Because you just chucked it in the trash can
_____
Last year at Christmas I gave you my heart
_____
But already the next day you threw it away
_____
This year it's clear I'm gonna spare myself the tears
_____
My heart will go to someone else
_____
I gave you my heart, I know
_____
That sadly it was only a gingerbread heart
_____
I gave you my heart, but in the end
_____
Guess it just didn't taste that good to you
_____
Last year at Christmas I gave you my heart
_____
But already the next day you threw it away
_____
This year it's clear I'm gonna spare myself the tears
_____
My heart will go to someone else
