6.Grown-up Christmas List
Written:David Foster/Linda Thompson Jenner
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
Chorus:
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
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
Chorus
Bridge:
What is this illusion called the innocence of youth.
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth
Chorus
