Grown Up Christmas List

[Verse 1]
Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm all grown up now
And still need help somehow
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream

[Verse 3]
So here's my lifelong wish
My grown-up Christmas list
Not for myself but for a world in need

[Chorus]
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal our hearts
Everyone would have a friend
That right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list

[Bridge]
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in that blind belief can we ever find the truth

[Chorus]
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal our hearts
Everyone would have a friend
That right would always win
And love would never end
This is my grown-up Christmas list
This is my only lifelong wish
This is my grown-up Christmas list
