I Can Dream Too

And if I do this, will you let me alone forever
And let Elizabeth and me go on with our lives?
This I promise

You know I can't make her perfect
I can only make her as I made you
Do you understand what I mean?

Yes, she'll be as beautiful as I
I ask for nothing more
First, I built the frame
Then, attached soft tissue cauterized with a flame

Alone again, never
With you forever
We'll be together
Just me and you

I'll be alone, never
With you forever
We'll be together
You see, I can dream too

Soon, she'll be here near me
Soon, she'll smile at me
And soon, she'll hold me tight
And touch me right and love me

Alone, never
With you, forever
We'll live together
Don't say I can't dream too

Soon, her heart will beat
And soon our eyes will meet
And soon she'll hold me tight
And touch me right and love me

Alone again, never
With you forever
No man will sever
Who says I can't dream too?

What is this that I am doing?
Is it a bad dream, or am I mad?
Is it life that I'm creating
Or to the death toll do I add?

Last time I felt great excitement
I was sure that it was right then
Now, I'm filled with endless fright
What if I create a race of demons
Killers, destroyers, bringing death?
I could not live with that on my head

With such anticipation, with such longing
He looks to me
From his world of loneliness
I alone can set him free

I can't just run away
For he is my responsibility
But to whom do I owe loyalty?
To the creature that I made
Or to my own race?
So love he may find
Or to protect all mankind
I must continue working
Before I change my mind

Soon her heart will beat
And soon I'll be complete

Then soon, she'll hold me tight (I should not)
And touch me right (can I not?)
And love me (I must not)

Alone again, never (forever)
With you forever (a hideous race, forever)
We'll be together
Just me and you

I cannot do this (alone again, never!)
No matter what he threatens (with you forever)
I will not do this (we'll be together)
Don't tell me what to do (don't say I can't dream too!)

No! I will not go on
No, you must finish her, I beg you, please!
I will not hear your pleading
Nor will I heed your pleading

I will no longer plead, I will now demand
You are my creator, but I have become your master now
Obey me! Obey me!

Victor! Are you alright?
Stay out, Henry!
Keep him out!
Stay out!

What's happening?
What the devil is this?
He said, "Stay out!"

Henry! No!
Henry! No!

Get out!

Get out, foul creature
Get out
Begone, you're not wanted
You'll find no help here

I will leave you now
But you can be sure that I will return
I will be with you on your wedding night
