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 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

Every man would have a friend

That 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
