Natalie Cole

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 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

There'd be no more lives torn apart, and wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
Every man would have a friend, and 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

The daughter of jazz legend Nat King Cole, Natalie Marie Cole (February 6, 1950-December 31, 2015) was an R&B icon who was primarily active from 1956 until her death in 2015 due to congestive heart failure at age 65. She first rose to success in the mid-‘70s with Inseparable and Natalie and later spawning Grammy-recognized albums like Unforgettable…With Love, which took home Album of the Year.

Cole has nine Grammy Awards out of twenty-one nominations – only a small testament to her legend.
