I've seen them down in the valley, Wild roses that grow by the side of the road, And they don't really mind if you pick them And they don't really care if you leave them alone. Wild roses... Wild roses open their hearts gently by the by. Wild roses grow unattended and nobody ever knows why. When the sun goes down in the valley There's music in the night that it brings, And the roses quietly listen To the song that the whippoorwill sings. Wild roses ... wild roses open their hearts gently by the by. Wild roses grow unattended and nobody ever knows why. You won't hear the sound of them leaving As they softly fade into the snow, And they don't really care if you pick them. Wild roses just grow by the side of the road. Wild roses just grow by the side of the road

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 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 color 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'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 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 lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief And I kissed her goodbye, said "All beauty must die" And I knelt down and planted a rose between her teeth They call me The Wild Rose But my name is 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

Feel the oceans as it breathes Shivering teeth See the mountains where they meet Smothering me As the wind fends off the waves I count down the days Heavy stones fear no weather I find comfort in the sound And the shape of the heart How it echoes through the chest From under the ground As the hills turn into holes I fill them with gold Heavy stones fear no weather And from the rain Comes a river running wild that will create An empire for you Illuminate There's a river running wild that will create An empire for you An empire for two An empire for you An empire for two And I paint your body black I hide in your hair And you're staring back at me Like I wasn't there As our bodies become stills We welcome the fear Heavy stones fear no weather And from the rain Comes a river running wild that will create An empire for you Illuminate There's a river running wild that will create An empire for you An empire for two An empire for you An empire for two And from the rain Comes a river running wild that will create An empire for you Illuminate There's a river running wild that will create An empire for you An empire for two An empire for you An empire for two
