Do you remember me? I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies.
Well, I'm all grown-up now, but still need help somehow
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream.
So here's my lifelong wish, my grown-up Christmas list,
Not for myself, but for a world in need:
No more lives torn apart,
And wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts...
Everyone would have a friend,
And right would always win,
And love would never end...
This is my grown-up Christmas list.
As children we believed the grandest sight to see
Was something lovely wrapped beneath the tree
Well heaven surely knows that packages and bows
Can never heal a hurting human soul.
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
No more lives torn apart,
And wars would never start,
And time would heal all hearts...
Everyone would have a friend,
And right would always win,
And love would never end...
This is my grownup Christmas list,
This is my only lifelong wish,
This is my grownup Christmas list.
