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 start 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 that blind belief can we ever find the truth 

No more lives torn apart 
That wars would never start 
And time would heal our 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
