Where The Wild Roses Grow

They call me the wild rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day

From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one

She stared in my eyes and smiled

For her lips were the color of the roses

That grew down the river, all bloody and wild


When he knocked on my door and entered the room

My trembling subsided in his sure embrace

He would be my first man, and with a careful hand

He wiped at the tears that ran down my face


They call me the wild rose

But my name was Elisa Day

Why they call me that I do not know?

For my name was Elisa day


On the second day I brought her a flower

She was more beautiful than any woman I've seen

I said, 'Do you know, where the wild roses grow

So sweet and scarlet and free?'



On the second day he came with a single red rose

He said 'Give me your loss and your sorrow?'

I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed

If I show you the roses will you follow alone


They call me the wild rose

But my name was Elisa Day

Why they call me that I do not know

For my name was Elisa Day


On the third day he took me to the river

He showed me the roses and we kissed

And the last thing I heard was a muttered word

As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist


On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow

She lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief

And I kissed her goodbye, said 'All beauty must die'

And I knelt down and planted a rose between her teeth


They call me the wild rose

But my name is Elisa Day

Why they call me it I do not know

For my name is Elisa Day

My name was Elisa Day

For my name was Elisa Day
