Píseň: Where The Wild Roses Grow

Interpret:
Kylie Minogue
Album:
The Abbey Road Sessions
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
She stared in my eyes and smiled
For her lips were the colour
Of the 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 ran down my face


They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me that 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've 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
He said: 'Give me your loss and your sorrow'
I nodded my head,
As I lay on the bed
'If I show you the roses will you follow?'


They call me The Wild Rose
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me that 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 knelt above me with a rock in his fist


On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
She laid on the bank, the wind light as a thief
And I kissed her goodbye
Said, 'All beauty must die'
And I lent down and planted a rose
'tween 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
My name was Elisa Day
For my name was Elisa Day
