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
From the
first day I saw her I knew
she was the one
As she
stared in my eyes and
smiled
For her
lips were the colour of
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
run 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
Said
“Will you give me your
loss and your sorrow?”
I nodded
my head, as I lay on the
bed
He
said,”If i show 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
stood smiling above me
with a rock in his fist
On the
last day I took her where the
wild roses grow
As she
lay on the bank, the
wind light as a thief
As I
kissed her goodbye, I said,”All
beaty must die”
And
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
