Where The Wild Roses Grow - Orchestra Alec Medina[00:00:00]
Written by:Nicholas Edward Cave/Orchestra Alec Medina[00:00:02]
They call me the wild rose[00:00:10]
But my name was Eliza day[00:00:17]
Why they call me it I do not know[00:00:21]
For my name was Eliza day[00:00:28]
From the first day I saw her I knew she[00:00:32]
Was the one[00:00:35]
As she stared in my eyes and smiled[00:00:37]
For her lips were the colour of the roses[00:00:41]
Grew down the river all bloody and wild[00:00:45]
When he knocked on my door[00:00:50]
And entered the room[00:00:52]
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace[00:00:54]
He would be my first man[00:00:58]
And with a careful hand[00:01:01]
He wiped out the tears that ran down my face[00:01:03]
They call me the wild rose[00:01:09]
But my name was Eliza day[00:01:16]
Why they call me it I do not know[00:01:20]
For my name was Eliza day[00:01:27]
On the second day I brought her a flower[00:01:31]
She was more beautiful[00:01:35]
Than any woman I'd seen[00:01:38]
I said[00:01:39]
Do you know where the wild roses grow[00:01:40]
So sweet and scarlet and free[00:01:44]
On the second day he came with a single red[00:01:48]
Rose[00:01:52]
He said give me your loss and your sorrow[00:01:53]
I nodded my head[00:01:57]
As I lay on the bed[00:01:59]
If I show you the roses will you fall[00:02:02]
They call me the wild rose[00:02:08]
But my name was Eliza day[00:02:15]
Why they call me that I do not know[00:02:19]
For my name was Eliza day[00:02:25]
On the third day he took me to the river[00:02:30]
He showed me the roses and we kissed[00:02:34]
And the last thing I heard was a muttered word[00:02:39]
As he knelt above me with a rock in his[00:02:43]
Fist[00:02:47]
On the last day I took her[00:02:47]
Where the wild roses grow[00:02:49]
And she lay on the bank the wind light as[00:02:52]
A thief[00:02:55]
And I kissed her goodbye I said 'all beauty must[00:02:56]
Die'[00:03:00]
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth[00:03:01]
They call me the wild rose[00:03:07]
But my name was Eliza day[00:03:14]
Why they call me it I do not know[00:03:18]
For my name was Eliza day[00:03:24]
For my name was Eliza day[00:03:29]
For my name was Eliza day[00:03:33]
