My Grown-Up Christmas List
|
|
Do you remember me?
|
I sat upon your knee
|
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies
|
Well I'm all grown up now
|
I 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
|
That wveryone would have a friend
|
And right would always win
|
And love would never end
|
This is my grown up Christmas list
|
|
As children we believe
|
The grandest sight to see
|
Was something lovely
|
Wrapped beneath the tree
|
But heaven only 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,
|
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,
|
Everyone would have a friend
|
And 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...
