Every year during December I keep hearing a Christmas song called Grown-Up Christmas List and I would like to know more about this song? I know that Natalie Cole was the original singer of Grown-Up Christmas List and then it became a hit song for Amy Grant who also released a wonderful music video to the song. Kelly Clarkson also covered Grown-Up Christmas List as well. Is the song Grown-Up Christmas List about a child who wants to make a Christmas list for the world and wants to make the world happy and full of joy for Christmas as an adult?

I think the answer to your question is in the song.


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
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, no
This is my grown up Christmas list

As children we believe
The grandest sight to see
Was something lovely wrapped beneath the tree
But Heaven only knows
That packages and bows
Can never heal a heartached 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, no
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
And everyone would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end, no
This is my grown up Christmas list
This is my only lifelong wish
This is my grown up Christmas list
