Do you remember meI sat upon your kneeI wrote to youWith childhood fantasiesWell, I’m all grown up nowAnd still need help somehowI’m not a childBut my heart still can dreamSo here’s my lifelong wishMy grown up christmas listNot for myselfBut for a world in needNo more lives torn apartThat wars would never startAnd wars would never startAnd time would heal all heartsAnd everyone would have a friendAnd right would always winAnd love would never endThis is my grown up christmas listAs children we believedThe grandest sight to seeWas something lovelyWrapped beneath our treeWell heaven surely knowsThat packages and bowsCan never healA hurting human soulNo more lives torn apartThat wars would never startAnd time would heal all heartsAnd everyone would have a friendAnd right would always winAnd love would never endThis is my grown up christmas listWhat is this illusion called the innocence of youthMaybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth(there’d be)No more lives torn apartThat wars would never startAnd time would heal all heartsAnd everyone would have a friendAnd right would always winAnd love would never end, ohThis is my grown up christmas listThis is my grown up christmas list
