My Grown Up Christmas List - Pix heavy - for my DU Family

[Sydnie]

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 heart still can dream



So here's my lifelong wish



My grown-up X-mas 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



There'd be no more lives torn apart



That wars would never start



And time would heal all hearts



And every man would have a friend



And right would always win



And love would never end



This is my grow-up X-mas list



This is my only life-long wish



This is my grown-up X-mas list....



Happy Holidays to all my DU FAMILY. May this season bring you together with good friends, supportive family, and HOPE for the future. :grouphug:

39. I actually heard a version that Streisand did

at work last week and it brought me to tears. I had to leave the area to compose myself. It haunted me and nagged at me so I had to create this post to do it justice.

Thanks for sharing that clip, but I wish it was the Streisand version instead.
