This is a beautiful song, but I know it has been used in something else with lyrics, possibly 'love grows cold as love grows old...' Any ideas?

@pb1149 It's Jerry Goldsmith's arrangement of the Scottish/English folk song "The Water is Wide" also known as "O Waly, Waly".

Such a great score!

Jerry Goldsmtih was one of a kind..well played!

[Gae41]

@TR0N91 He will be deeply missed but his music lives on. I like your arrangements incidentally. What are you using for strings? They sound great.......the KN2000 strings aren't that great.

@Gae41 Thank you. If you are referring to my 'BLADE RUNNER Suite', i used the strings from my old Roland XP-10 Synthesiser.
