Live recording of "My Grown Up Christmas List" from December 15, 2006.
Lyrics
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
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 the tree

Well heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal a hurting human soul

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

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth?
Maybe only in our blind belief can we ever find the truth

There'll be
(No more lives)
No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
(Never start)
And time would heal all hearts
Everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
(Love won't end)

This is my grown up Christmas list
This is my only lifelong wish
This is my grown up Christmas list
