Where The Wild Roses Grow"(feat. Nick Cave
4
They call me The Wild Rose
5
But my name is Elisa Day
6
Why they call me it I do not know
7
For my name is Elisa Day
8
From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
9
As she stared in my eyes and smiled
10
For her lips were the colour of the roses
11
That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
12
When he knocked on my door and entered the room
13
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
14
He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
15
He wiped at the tears that ran down my face
16
[CHORUS]
17
On the second day I brought her a flower
18
She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen
19
I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
20
So sweet and scarlet and free?"
21
On the second day he came with a single red rose
22
Said: "Will you give me your loss and your sorrow?"
23
I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
24
He said, "if I show you the roses will you follow?"
25
[CHORUS]
26
On the third day he took me to the river
27
He showed me the roses and we kissed
28
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
29
As he stood smiling above me with a rock in his fist
30
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
31
And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
32
As I kissed her goodbye, I said, "All beauty must die"
33
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
34
[CHORUS]
