Lyrics
Wild Rose, Wild Rose
Where she goes, no one knows
But there she goes, Wild Rose
A wild chestnut mane and jade green eyes
A breath taking ride thru a painted sunrise
She's a new born foal and desert cyclone
She captured my heart and made it her own
Wild Rose, Wild Rose
Where she goes, no one knows
But there she goes, Wild Rose
Just a moment she's here, for so brief a stay
My heart fails to beat when she rides away
but the wind is her love, the range is her king
He calls and she's gone like a bird on the wing
Wild Rose, Wild Rose
Where she goes, no one knows
But there she goes, Wild Rose
Alone by a fire gone cold with the rain
When will she return and ease the pain
This cowboy heart longs for the shining day
When my Wild Rose won't ride away
Wild Rose, Wild Rose
Where she goes, no one knows
But there she goes, Wild Rose
