Do you remember me? I sat upon your knee I wrote to you With childhood fantasies Well, I'm a grown-up now And still need help somehow I'm not a child But my heart still can dream So here's my life-long 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 Everyone would have a friend And right would always win And love would never end, oh This is my grown-up Christmas list As children we believed The grandest sight to see Was something lovely Right beneath our tree, hey-yeah But Heaven only knows That packages and bows Can never heal A hurt and human soul, oh No more lives torn apart That wars would never start And time would heal all hearts, yeah Everyone 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 Can we ever find the truth Ooh, yeah Ooh (ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) No more lives torn apart That wars would never start And time would heal all hearts (that would heal every heart) Everyone would have a friend And right would always win And love would never end 'Cause this is my grown-up Christmas list This is my only life-long wish This our grow-up Christmas list
