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
 Every man 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 that 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 every man would have a friend
 And 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
