Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee.
I wrote to you
With childhood fantasies.

Well, I'm all grown up now,
And 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.
Ev'ry man would have a friend
That 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.
Ev'ry 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 our blind belief
Will we ever find the truth.

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts.
Ev'ry man would have a friend
That right would always win
And love would never end, oh.
This is my grown up Christmas list.
This is my only life long wish.
This is my grown up Christmas list.
