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 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 only 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
(there'd be)


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 grown up christmas list
