LILT: Rosenrot 3.0

A young lady noticed a rose
Up the mountain where they grow
So she went and asked her beloved
If the rose could be recovered

She really wants it which is fine
That's how the story's gone throughout time
Such whims are often met
What she desires she shall get

Truly 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 the story's gone throughout time
Such whims are often met
What she desires she shall get

Truly deep wells must be bored
If clear water's what you seek
Rosenrot oh Rosenrot
Undercurrents run down deep

Truly deep wells must be bored
If clear water's what you seek
Rosenrot oh Rosenrot
Undercurrents run down deep

But when his stony foothold breaks
He thinks his route a mistake
His last scream informs them all
He and the red rose have fallen

She really wants it which is fine
That's how the story's gone throughout time
Such whims are often met
What she desires she shall get

Truly deep wells must be bored
If clear water's what you seek
Rosenrot oh Rosenrot
Undercurrents run down deep

LILT: Rosenrot 1.1

A young lady once spied a rose
Up the mountain where they grow
So she had then 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

Truly 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

Truly deep wells must be bored
If clear water's what you seek
Rosenrot oh Rosenrot
Undercurrents run down deep

Truly deep wells must be bored
If clear water's what you seek
Rosenrot oh Rosenrot
Undercurrents run down deep

But when his stony foothold breaks
He thinks his route a mistake
His scream then informs 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

Truky 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.
