Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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, no This is my grown-up Christmas list [Verse 2] As children we believe The grandest sight to see Was something lovely wrapped beneath the tree But Heaven only knows That packages and bows Can never heal a heartached human soul [Chorus] 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, no 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 [Chorus] 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, no This is my grown-up Christmas list This is my only lifelong wish This is my grown-up Christmas list
