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 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 Then wars would never start And time would heal all hearts And every one 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 Then wars would never start And time would heal all hearts And every one 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 Then wars would never start And time would heal all hearts And every one 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 --- Grown-Up Christmas List - Amy Grant and London Studio Orchestra
