Grown Up Christmas List

Do you remember me?

I sat upon your knee

I wrote to you with childhood fantasies

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

Every man would have a friend

And right would always win

And love would never end

Oh, this is my grown up Christmas list

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?

Maybe only in our blind belief

Will we ever find the truth?

No more lives torn apart

And wars would never start

And time would heal all hearts

And every man would have a friend

And right would always win

And love would never end

Oh, this is my grown up Christmas wish

This is my only lifelong wish

This is my grown up Christmas list
