[00:09.78]He call me the Wild Rose
[00:16.23]But my name was Elisa Day
[00:21.11]Why he call me that I do not know
[00:28.12]For my name was Elisa Day
[00:32.08]
[00:32.90]From the first day I saw I knew she was the one
[00:37.59]As she stared in my eyes and smiled
[00:42.11]For her lips were the colour of the roses
[00:46.79]That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
[00:52.24]
[00:52.83]When he knocked on my door and entered the room
[00:57.89]My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
[01:02.48]He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
[01:07.39]He wiped at the tears that ran down my faces
[01:12.92]
[01:14.57]He call me the Wild Rose
[01:21.77]But my name was Elisa Day
[01:26.43]Why he call me that I do not know
[01:33.57]For my name was Elisa Day
[01:37.93]
[01:38.61]On the second day I brought her a flower
[01:42.91]She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen
[01:47.91]I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
[01:52.86]so sweet and scarlet and free?"
[01:57.42]
[01:57.70]On the second day he came with a single red rose
[02:02.26]He said, "Give me your lost and your sorrow."
[02:06.88]I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
[02:11.74]"If I show you the roses will you follow?"
[02:17.16]
[02:19.30]He call me the Wild Rose
[02:26.53]But my name was Elisa Day
[02:31.17]Why he call me that I do not know
[02:38.25]For my name was Elisa Day
[02:42.35]
[02:44.17]On the third day he took me to the river
[02:47.97]He showed me the roses and we kissed
[02:52.39]And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
[02:57.72]As he knocked above me with a rock in his fist
[03:02.44]
[03:02.69]On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
[03:07.60]And she lay on the bank, whe wind light as a thief
[03:10.68]As I kissed her goodbye, said I "All beauty must die"
[03:16.60]And I lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
[03:23.34]
[03:24.03]He call me the Wild Rose
[03:31.02]But my name was Elisa Day
[03:35.73]Why he call me that I do not know
[03:43.08]For my name was Elisa Day
[03:47.59]
[03:48.38]My name was Elisa Day
[03:52.87]For my name was Elisa Day
[03:57.40]
