Natalie Cole - Grown Up Christmas List Lyrics
Lyrics by Linda ThompsonDo you remember me I sat upon your kneeI wrote to youWith childhood fantasiesWell, I'm all grown up nowCan you still help somehowI'm not a childBut my heart still can dreamSo here's my lifelong wishMy grown-up Christmas listNot for myselfBut for a world in needNo more lives torn apartThat wars would never startAnd time would heal all heartsEvery man would have a friendThat right would always winAnd love would never endThis is my grown-upChristmas listWhat is this illusion calledThe innocence of youthMaybe only in their blind beliefCan we ever find the truthThere'd be no more lives torn apartAnd wars would never startAnd time would heal all heartsEvery man would have a friendAnd right would always winAnd love would never endThis is my grown-up Christmas listThis is my only lifelong wishThis is my grown-up Christmas listHoo---, hoo--
