Last krisimasi I gave wewe my heart
But the very inayofuata day, wewe gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shied
I keep my distance but wewe still catch my eye
Tell me baby
Do wewe recognize me
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
Merry Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying 'I upendo you', I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if wewe kiss me now, I know you'd fool me again

Last krisimasi I gave wewe my heart
But the very inayofuata day, wewe gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last krisimasi I gave wewe my heart
But the very inayofuata day, wewe gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

A crowded room and Marafiki with tired eyes
I'm hiding from wewe and your soul of ice
My God, I thought wewe were someone to rely on
Me, I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a moto in his heart
A girl on a cover but wewe tore her apart
Maybe this year
Maybe this mwaka I'll give it to someone special

Cause last krisimasi I gave wewe my heart
But the very inayofuata day, wewe gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last krisimasi I gave wewe my heart
But the very inayofuata day, wewe gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

And last Christmas
And this year
It won't be anything like, anything like

Last krisimasi I gave wewe my heart
But the very inayofuata day, wewe gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
