A young lady had spied a rose
Up the mountain where they grow
So she had asked her beloved
If the rose could be recovered
She really wants it which is fine
That's how it has been throughout time
Such whims are often met
What she desires she shall get
Really deep wells must be bored
If clear water's what you seek
Rosenrot oh Rosenrot
Undercurrents run down deep
The tortured boy then climbs the tor
The vista's not what he's there for
A small rose his only care
Which he retrieves for his dear
She really wants it which is fine
That's how it has been throughout time
Such whims are often met
What she desires she shall get
Really deep wells must be bored
If clear water's what you seek
Rosenrot oh Rosenrot
Undercurrents run down deep
But when his stoney foothold breaks
He thinks his route was a mistake
His scream then informs them all
He and the red rose have fallen
She really wants it which is fine
That's how it has been throughout time
Such whims are often met
What she desires she shall get
Really deep wells must be bored
If clear water's what you seek
Rosenrot oh Rosenrot
Undercurrents run down deep

I have a feeling that this one is going to have to be gutted at some stage. I like the words for their meaning, but not so much for the way they sound.
