Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Where The Wild Roses Grow Lyrics
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
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
[Chorus]
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
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 you the roses, will you follow?"
[Chorus]
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 (stood smiling) above me with a rock in his fist
On the last day I took her where the wild roses grow
And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
And I kissed her goodbye, said, "All beauty must die"
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
[Chorus]

Only 20 Mio - this song deserves much more!

For me it is always the Black Dahlia story...

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 the roses
They 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 the tears that ran 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?' …
The Murder Ballads album that this single came from is amazing.
Coaie sunteti bolavi cine plm asculta asa ceva? Romanii mei hai sa dam jos cu ea!

Eliza Carthy should record this.
Well, okay resurgence. We know you now. Also, ew for that basic beech fantasy.
Looking for a comment? 😜
This is truly a beautiful song...what a great match of voices ❤
Timeless
Okay, I have several questions, how you could publish this video 9 years ago, if the date of registration of your channel is 2019? Are you an error? Or a time traveler? Who are you? Statistics says that you are more powerful than T-Series, who are you?
He be a HACKERRR
Who is listening to this magical song in 2020 ?
Yo . Argentina
always !!! <3
Listening to the dark side of love also in 2020 :-)
Hello Serbia!
@Raivis omg same... if only you knew...
I had no idea that Kylie Minogue sang this song.Wow.
No one knows this, but maybe Eve was red-haired in the Garden of Eden.
My interpretation of the song and the lyrics is that she was probably a very innocent and naive girl and I’m assuming this takes place in the early 1900s. He probably encountered her while she was alone and was immediately captivated by her beauty and stalked her to her home. He then entered her home, she was scared which is why she began to tremble and cry, but being so naive he was able to calm her and manipulate her into sleeping with him. He then arrived the second day where he had already planned on murdering her, probably for a few reasons the main one is so that he could never lose her, her beauty would remain forever and that she would always be his. He then took her to where the wild roses grow and proceeded to murder her. The reason they call her the wild rose is probably by the time they found the body it was succumbed to the elements and because of the lack of technology they weren’t able to identify the body therefore naming her the wild rose.
My dad let me watch this when I was like 7 and it literally traumatised me lmao 😂
One of the best music I've ever heard. Sweet and gloomy
This has an aura akin to that of Lolita.
Beautiful song
Into what abysses man must first go in order to write such beautiful songs? maybe, a selfmade problem...

when my girlfriend wants romance I play her this song and we all just fuck
So we were at school, reading Arthur Rembo and Ofelia, when our professor showed us this video. Apparently, this video represents her. That's cool.
Vous vous souvenez de l'année de sortie de ce titre? Merci
Poetically dark
for French speakers and not only, another kind of murder ballad:

Well that was disturbing.
Опять ты ?

Hey boiiiii Kylie is the most beautiful thing actually ALIVE in the UNIVERSE!
It's sick! I had never seen Kylie dead!!!
And now I think I about my billions and billions of dead children because of her... Nevermind, I love you Kylie! please! never die!!!
IMÁDOM! Gyönyörűek, édesek! Nagyon eltaláltad, nem új dal, szuper!
*Legends never die*
After 25 years listening Nick Cave ans Kylie Minogue separately. They have no song writen as even close good as this song was. One of the GREATEST LOWE SONGS FOREWER
Nick cave can have my whole heart 🖤

Як проникливо! Чутливо! Поет волшебным шепотом.
My favorite song
The previous comments were beautiful, and nick said it himself "all beauty must die"

Une figure du mal qui avec (grâce) à Nick Cave et Kylie Minogue se transforme en beauté.
I don’t get why anyone digs Nick Cave.
