Where the Wild Roses Grow

by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (featuring Kylie Minogue)

Chorus:
They call me The Wild __________________
But my name was Elisa Day
Why they call me it, I do not __________________
For my name was Elisa Day

[Nick Cave]
From the first day I saw her, I __________________ she was the one
She stared in my eyes and __________________
For her __________________ were the colour of the __________________
That grew down the __________________, all bloody and wild

[Kylie Minogue]
When he __________________ on my door and entered the room
My trembling subsided in his sure embrace
He __________________ be my first man, and with a __________________ hand
He wiped at the __________________ that ran down my __________________

Chorus

[Nick Cave]
On the second day I __________________ her a flower
She was more __________________ than any woman I'd seen
I said, "Do you know where the wild roses grow
So __________________ and scarlet and __________________?"

[Kylie Minogue]
On the second day he __________________ with a single red rose
He said: "Give me your loss and your __________________"
I nodded my head, as I lay on the __________________
He said, "If I show you the roses, will you __________________?"

Chorus

[Kylie Minogue]
On the third day he took me to the __________________
He showed me the roses and we __________________
And the last thing I __________________ was a muttered word
As he knelt above me with a __________________ in his fist

 

[Nick Cave]
On the __________________ day I took her where the wild roses grow
And she lay on the bank, the __________________ light as a thief
And I kissed her goodbye, said, "All beauty must __________________"
And I leant down and planted a rose between her teeth
