Timeless Christmas Songs: My Grown Up Christmas List by Amy Grant



4. MY GROWN UP CHRISTMAS LIST (Amy Grant)
The original version of the song where I appreciate the music video and the concept where she was in home and with the other kids.



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.(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 wars would never start)
And time would heal all hearts
And 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.(wrapped beneath the tree)

Well heaven surely 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
And 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'd be)

No more lives torn apart
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, oh
This is my grown-up christmas list

This is my grown-up christmas list
