Where The Wild Rosees Grow ========================== by Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds + Kylie Minogue R: They call me the wild rose, but my name is Eliza Day Why, they call me like "I do not know", for my name is Eliza Day 1. On the first day I saw her I knew she was the one she stared in my eyes and smiled For her lips with the colour of the roses, that grew down the river All bloody and wine When he knocked on my door and he entered the room the trembling subside and in his sure embrace He would be my first lad, a worker for hand he wiped off the tears, that run down my face R: They call me the wild rose, but my name is Eliza Day Why, they call me like "I do not know", for my name is Eliza Day 2. On the second day I brought her a flower, she's more beautiful Than any woman I see 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 R: They call me the wild rose, but my name is Eliza Day Why, they call me like "I do not know", for my name is Eliza Day 3. 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 martered word, as he melt above me with a rock in his face On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow, she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief And I kissed her good-bye, said all beauty must die, as I lent down and planted a rose between her tears R: They call me the wild rose, but my name is Eliza Day Why, they call me like "I do not know", for my name is Eliza Day (x3)
