My Grown Up Christmas List
Do you remember meI sat upon your kneeI wrote to youWith childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up nowAnd still need help somehowI'm not a childBut my heart still can dream
So here's my lifelong wishMy grown up christmas listNot for myselfBut for a world in need
No 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 list
As children we believedThe grandest sight to seeWas something lovelyWrapped beneath our tree
Well heaven only knowsThat packages and bowsCan never healA hurting human soul
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 endThis is my grown up christmas list
What 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 only life long wishThis is my grown up christmas list
