|
Do you remember me? |
|
I sat upon your knee; |
|
I wrote to you |
|
With childhood fantasies. |
|
Well, I'm all grown-up now, |
|
And still need 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 would heal all hearts. |
|
And everyone would have a friend, |
|
And right would always win, |
|
And love would never end. |
|
This is my grown-up Christmas list. |
|
As children we believed |
|
The grandest sight to see |
|
Was something lovely |
|
Wrapped beneath our tree. |
|
Well Heaven surely knows |
|
That packages and bows |
|
Can never heal |
|
A hurting human soul. |
|
No more lives torn apart, |
|
That wars would never start, |
|
And time would heal all hearts. |
|
And everyone would have a friend, |
|
And right would always win, |
|
And love would 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 would heal all hearts. |
|
And everyone would have a friend, |
|
And right would always win, |
|
And love would never end, oh. |
|
This is my grown-up Christmas list. |
|
This is my grown-up Christmas list. |
