Where the Wild Roses Grow (2011 Remaster)

[00:09.51] They call me the Wild Rose
[00:14.16] But my name was Elisa Day
[00:20.69] Why they call me that I do not know
[00:26.34] For my name was Elisa Day
[00:32.37] From the first day I saw her
[00:34.96] I knew she was the one
[00:37.19] She stared at my eyes and smiled
[00:41.63] For her lips were the colour of the roses
[00:45.36] That grew down the river
[00:48.97] All bloody and wild
[00:51.35] When he knocked on my door and entered the room
[00:56.26] My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
[01:00.41] He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
[01:05.27] He wiped at the tears that ran down my face
[01:11.94] They call me the Wild Rose
[01:19.21] But my name was Elisa Day
[01:24.07] Why they call me that I do not know
[01:30.76] For my name was Elisa Day
[01:35.72] On the second day I brought her a flower
[01:40.30] She was more beautiful than any woman I've seen
[01:45.05] I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
[01:50.01] So sweet and scarlet and free?"
[01:54.57] On the second day he came with a single red rose
[01:59.02] He said: "Give me your loss and your sorrow!"
[02:03.87] I nodded my head
[02:06.18] As I lay on the bed
[02:08.39] "If I show you the roses will you follow?"
[02:15.18] They call me the Wild Rose
[02:22.10] But my name was Elisa Day
[02:26.83] Why they call me that I do not know
[02:33.52] For my name was Elisa Day
[02:39.42] On the third day he took me to the river
[02:43.19] He showed me the roses, and we kissed
[02:48.10] And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
[02:52.96] As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist
[02:57.66] On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
[03:01.95] She lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
[03:06.65] As I kissed her goodbye, said "All beauty must die"
[03:10.99] And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
[03:18.22] They call me the Wild Rose
[03:24.63] But my name was Elisa Day
[03:29.54] Why they call me that I do not know
[03:36.59] For my name was Elisa Day
[03:50.54]
