Diclaimer: I don't own Edward Scissorhands...poor me.
I Wait
You are so near, but I cannot reach you
So I wait for you to come to me
Although I know that so much time has past
I realize that our love can last
I never told you that I cared
I never was very good with words
But I know you knew
For your heart rang true
I sit here in my tower
I sit and think of you
My heart aches every minute
For I am that raging culprit
I hate to think of what I left
Of what I started and what I ended
Maybe it would have been better if I hadn't come
Then I wouldn't have people to call me loathsome
And now I sound selfish in all my thoughts
To think only of myself and what I've become
But you have probably dealt with worse
All because of this hated curse
And Father, I never questioned
But why would you leave my hands till last?
Why these blades of destruction
That can only cause harmful actions?
And I know that what I make isn't that
My shrubs, hair, and ice
Wasn't it called imagination?
Wasn't I a magical craftsman?
But the blood that dropped frightened me
The people that fled in terror
The ones that loved me suddenly wanted me dead
But it was the one who hated me who stood by me instead
And I only wanted you happy
I only wanted to do what you said
But when you asked me to hold you
I wanted to cry because there was another thing I couldn't do
I'm sad to say that time has continued
And that my beautiful ice angel hasn't returned
I'm always waiting, you know
Just look outside in winter and remember who makes it snow
