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 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   Every man would have a friend      That 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 their blind belief   Can we ever find the truth   There'd be no more lives torn apart   And wars would never start      And time would heal all hearts   Every man 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   Hoo, hoo
