[00:09.48] They call me The Wild Rose
[00:14.51] But my name was Elisa Day
[00:19.57] Why they call me it I do not know
[00:24.62] For my name was Elisa Day
[00:31.26] From the first day I saw her I knew she was the one
[00:36.04] She stared in my eyes and smiled
[00:40.56] For her lips were the colour of the roses
[00:44.81] That grew down the river, all bloody and wild
[00:50.66] When he knocked on my door and entered the room
[00:55.45] My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
[00:59.97] He would be my first man, and with a careful hand
[01:04.49] He wiped at the tears that ran down my face
[01:11.13] They call me The Wild Rose
[01:16.98] But my name was Elisa Day
[01:22.81] Why they call me that I do not know
[01:28.40] For my name was Elisa Day
[01:34.77] On the second day I brought her a flower
[01:39.28] She was more beautiful than any woman I'd seen
[01:44.33] I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
[01:49.38] So sweet and scarlet and free?"
[01:53.90] On the second day he came with a single red rose
[01:58.41] He said "Will you give me your loss and your sorrow"
[02:02.66] I nodded my head, as I lay on the bed
[02:07.44] "If I show you the roses, will you follow?"
[02:12.75] They call me The Wild Rose
[02:19.66] But my name was Elisa Day
[02:25.77] Why they call me that I do not know
[02:31.88] For my name was Elisa Day
[02:37.74] On the third day he took me to the river
[02:42.25] He showed me the roses and we kissed
[02:46.77] And the last thing I heard was a muttered word
[02:51.82] As he knelt above me with a rock in his fist
[02:56.86] On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
[03:01.11] And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
[03:05.65] And I kissed her goodbye, said, "All beauty must die"
[03:09.90] And I lent down and planted a rose 'tween her teeth
[03:17.34] They call me The Wild Rose
[03:22.38] But my name was Elisa Day
[03:28.77] Why they call me that I do not know
[03:34.36] For my name was Elisa Day
[03:39.95] My name was Elisa Day
[03:44.99] For my name was Elisa Day
