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

And 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

That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts 

And 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 our tree 

Well heaven surely knows

That packages and bows

Can never heal
A hurting human soul 

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start

And time would heal all hearts 

And everyone would have a friend

And 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 

No more
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start

And time would heal all hearts 

And everyone would have a friend

And right would always win

And love would never end oh 
This is my grown-up christmas list 
This is my only up wish this my grown christmas list
