"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 last day I took her where the wild roses grow
And she lay on the bank, the wind light as a thief
As I kissed her goodbye, I said, 'All beauty must die'
And lent down and planted a rose between her teeth
