Oh your reputation's so golden You're never lonely and you're never home I know you've been talking about leaving You've lost all your feeling for this town Paint your nails and put on your lipstick You don't want to miss your ticket out Just because you graduate from school so high in the gene pool that's your point of view but when you're broken down and no one else is around you'll come running back to this town and I'll be there yeah, I'll be there 'Cause I remember how we drank time together and how you used to say that the stars are forever and daydreamed about how to make your life better by leaving town, leaving town Pack your bags, your smokes in your pocket You're wearing my locket around your neck Take a drag and wait for the Greyhound The world is your playground and you want to win but when you're broken down and no one else is around you'll come running back to this town and I'll be there yeah, I'll be there 'Cause I remember how we drank time together and how you used to say that the stars are forever and daydreamed about how to make your life better by leaving town, leaving town Nothing in life will ever come that easy Doesn't mean it has to be that hard I know you will find out who you are... But when you're broken down and no one else is around you'll come running back to this town and I'll be there yeah, I'll be there 'Cause I remember how we drank time together and how you used to say that the stars are forever and daydreamed about how to make your life better by leaving town, leaving town
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 Once bitten and twice shy I keep my distance but you still catch my eye Tell me baby, do you recognize me? Well, it's been a year That doesn't surprise me Merry Christmas, I wrap it up and send it With a note saying 'I love 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 Crowded room, friends with tired eyes Hiding from you and your soul of ice My god, I thought you were someone to rely on Me, I guess I'm just shoulder to cry on A face on a lover with a fire in his heart A man under cover but you tore me apart Ooh, now I've found a real love You'll never fool me again Found a real love Yeah, I found a real love 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 you gave it away Now I'll give it to someone special I'll give it to someone special
