[00:09.29]They call me The Wild Rose
[00:14.61]But my name was Elisa Day
[00:20.58]Why they call me it I do not know
[00:25.39]For my name was Elisa Day

[00:32.49]From the first day I saw I knew she was the one
[00:37.33]As she stared in my eyes and smiled
[00:41.49]For her lips were the colour of the roses
[00:45.05]That grew down the river, all bloody and wild

[00:51.11]When he knocked on my door and entered the room
[00:55.98]My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
[01:00.31]He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
[01:05.38]He wiped at the tears that ran down my face

[01:09.83]They call me The Wild Rose
[01:16.91]But my name was Elisa Day
[01:23.63]Why they call me that I do not know
[01:29.59]For my name was Elisa Day

[01:35.29]On the second day I brought her a flower
[01:39.13]She was more beautiful than any woman I've seen
[01:44.79]I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
[01:49.22]So sweet and scarlet and free?"

[01:54.22]On the second day he came with a single red rose
[01:58.52]He said, "Give me your loss and your sorrow?"
[02:01.97]I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
[02:07.04]"If I show you the roses will you follow?"

[02:12.61]They call me The Wild Rose
[02:19.52]But my name was Elisa Day
[02:26.27]Why they call me that I do not know
[02:31.14]For my name was Elisa Day

[02:37.10]On the third day he took me to the river
[02:41.42]He showed me the roses and we kissed
[02:47.09]And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
[02:52.52]As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist

[02:57.01]On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
[03:01.84]And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
[03:06.30]And I kissed her goodbye, said "All beauty must die"
[03:10.03]And I lent down and planted a rose 'tween her teeth

[03:16.95]They call me The Wild Rose
[03:22.00]But my name was Elisa Day
[03:28.97]Why they call me it I do not know
[03:33.79]For my name was Elisa Day
[03:40.99]... My name was Elisa Day
[03:45.52]... For my name was Elisa Day
