My Grown-Up Christmas List
Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee.
I wrote to you
with childhood fantasies.
Well I'm all grown up now,
can you still 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,
That wars would never start.
And time would heal all hearts.
Everyone would have a friend,
that right would always win
and love would never end.
This is my grown up Christmas list.
What is this illusion
called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in our blind belief
can we ever find the truth.
There’d be no more lives torn apart,
That wars would never start.
And time would heal all hearts.
Everyone would have a friend,
that right would always win
and love would never end.
This is my grown up Christmas list,
this is my only lifelong wish,
this is my grown up Christmas list.
