Where the Wild Roses Grow - karaoke text
They call me The Wild RoseBut my name was Elisa DayWhy they call me it I do not knowFor my name was Elisa DayFrom the first day I saw herI knew she was the oneAs she stared in my eyesand smiledFor her lips with the colourof the rosesThat grew down the river,all bloody and wildWhen he knocked on my doorand entered the roomMy trembling subsidedin his sure embraceHe would be my first man,and a wery careful handHe wiped up the tearsthat ran down my faceThey call me The Wild RoseBut my name was Elisa DayWhy they call me that I do not knowFor my name was Elisa DayOn the second day I brought hera flowerShe´s more beautifulthan any woman I'd seenI said, 'Do you knowwhere the wild roses growSo sweet and scarlet and free?'On the second day he camewith a single red roseHe said: 'Will you give me your lossand your sorrow?'I nodded my head,as I layed on the bed'If I´ll show you the roseswill you follow?'They call me The Wild RoseBut my name was Elisa DayWhy they call me that I do not knowFor my name was Elisa DayOn the third day he took meto the riverHe showed me the rosesand we kissedAnd the last thing I heardwas a muttered wordAs he stood smiling above mewith a rock in his fistOn the last day I took herwhere the wild roses growShe lay on the bank,the wind light as a thiefAnd I kissed her goodbye,said, 'All beauty must die'And I lent down and planteda rose ´tween her teethThey call me The Wild RoseBut my name was Elisa DayWhy they call me it I do not knowFor my name was Elisa DayMy name was Elisa DayFor my name was Elisa Day
