From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
She stared in my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour of the roses
That grew down the river all bloody and wild When he knocked on my door and entered the room My trembling subsided in his sure embrace He would be my first man and with a careful hand He wiped at the tears that ran down my face
They call me the Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day
On the second day I brought her a flower
She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen I said Do you know where the wild roses grow So sweet and scarlet and free On the second day he came with a single red rose He said Will you give me your loss and your sorrow I nodded my head as I lay on the bed If I show you the roses will you follow
They call me the Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day
On the third day he took me to the river
He showed me the roses and we kissed
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word As he knelt Above me with a rock in his fist On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow She lay on the bank the wind light as a thief And I kissed her goodbye said All beauty must die And I lent down and planted a rose between her teeth They call me the Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it I do not know
For my name was Elisa Day
My name was Elisa Day
For my name was Elisa Day
