Grown-Up Christmas List

Do you remember me
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grownup 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 will heal all hearts
And everyman would have a friend
and right would always win
And love will never end
this is my grown up Christmas list

May kindness rule our lives
Not just the strong survives
Sweet tears for all
the thousand years gone by
This is the world i pray
we will all share someday
Help me begin
by reaching out my hand

No more lives torn apart
that wars would never start
And time will heal all hearts
Everyman would have a friend
that right would always win
And love will never end
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

No more lives torn apart
that wars would never start
And time will heal all hearts
Everyman would have a friend
that right would always win
And love will never end
This is my grown up Christmas list
This is the prayer i hope you'll hear
This is my grown up Christmas list
