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

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