[00:10.120]He call me the Wild Rose
[00:16.550]But my name was Elisa Day
[00:21.680]Why he call me that I do not know
[00:28.550]For my name was Elisa Day
[00:34.180]From the first day I saw I knew she was the one
[00:37.930]As she stared in my eyes and smiled
[00:42.740]For her lips were the colour of the roses
[00:47.800]That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
[00:52.800]When he knocked on my door and entered the room
[00:57.490]My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
[01:02.050]He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
[01:06.990]He wiped at the tears that ran down my faces
[01:14.300]He call me the Wild Rose
[01:21.430]But my name was Elisa Day
[01:26.180]Why he call me that I do not know
[01:33.310]For my name was Elisa Day
[01:38.430]On the second day I brought her a flower
[01:42.680]She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen
[01:47.870]I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
[01:52.810]so sweet and scarlet and free?"
[01:57.370]On the second day he came with a single red rose
[02:02.180]He said, "Give me your lost and your sorrow."
[02:06.810]I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
[02:11.680]"If I show you the roses will you follow?"
[02:18.990]He call me the Wild Rose
[02:26.370]But my name was Elisa Day
[02:30.090]Why he call me that I do not know
[02:36.680]For my name was Elisa Day
[02:41.840]On the third day he took me to the river
[02:45.590]He showed me the roses and we kissed
[02:48.710]And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
[02:53.590]As he knocked above me with a rock in his fist
[02:58.400]On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
[03:03.090]And she lay on the bank, whe wind light as a thief
[03:07.780]As I kissed her goodbye, said I "All beauty must die"
[03:12.530]And I lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
[03:20.030]He call me the Wild Rose
[03:26.380]But my name was Elisa Day
[03:30.690]Why he call me that I do not know
[03:38.190]For my name was Elisa Day
[03:43.250]My name was Elisa Day
[03:47.940]For my name was Elisa Day
