Verse 1:
Do you remember me?
I sat upon your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
Well, I'm all grown up now
Can you still 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
Chorus:
No more lives torn apart
Then wars will never start
And time will heal our hearts
Every man will have a friend
Then right will always win
And love will never end
This is my grown up Christmas list
Verse 2:
May kindness rule our lives
Not just the strong survive
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
Chorus
Verse 3:
What is this illusion called
The innocence of youth
Maybe only in that blind belief can we ever find the truth
Chorus
This is the year I hope you hear
This is my grown up Christmas list
Ooh...
Christmas list...
