ROSA'S SONG
See the boat out on the tide
Burning bright the embers rise
There's no lighthouse here tonight
Can forgiveness be our guide?
I have cried a thousand tears
In the dark all these years
How can love make us this strong?
Listen to a mother's song
See the words across the page
Falling down like sapphire rain
Years of hiding what was true
Is it too much to undo?
I have cried a thousand tears
In the dark all these years
How can love make us this strong?
Listen to a mother's song

Ellen, you have the most beautiful and angelic voice I have ever heard. Makes me tear up every time I listen. God bless!

Left me speechless and my eyes are in tear. The most beautiful music and voice I've ever heard. Thank you very much.

[@mickyfinn1948]

That was amazing, Ellen - such beautiful music and you singing like an angel! It actually brought a tear to my eye - so moving with beautiful lyrics too. Well done to all involved but especially to the Welsh songstress! 👏❤🙏

[@waynecliburn2749]

Truly Inspired & beautiful. So well performed. Thank you Marco and Ellen. A song from - and for - the heart. .. an inner stillness that transcends pain of the past in order to look clearly at the promise of a better future, one of choice and forgiveness, full of grace.

What a soul-stirring song, Ellen. One can tell how much it touches you and these strong feelings carry over to the listener. An absolutely sublime performance. Wonderful! 🥰

[@davidabbott9417]

A purely beautiful song Ellen, performed with such heartfelt emotion. 💖

[@dhightone6755]

You sang this song beautifully. Thanks for printing the words to the song in the comments section below the video. You are listed as one of the writers of this song. Did you write some of the words, or some of the music, or both?

[@EllenWilliamsSoprano]

Thank you so much, it really was a beautiful song to record. I titled the song and wrote the lyrics after being taken through the movie plot with the producers. The song summarises the drama experienced by the protagonists, their humanity, and search for redemption and forgiveness. I'm looking forward to seeing the film!

[@pianodesu]

@@EllenWilliamsSoprano The theme is incredibly beautiful and the words touched depths of my soul!

Que DIVINAAAAAAAA voz increíble maravillosa 🌹🌹🌹

[@laurenschenck5355]

SO BEAUTIFUL LOVE IT ❤❤❤

[@dhightone6755]

Did you write the lyrics to this song first, and then Marco Werba's music was added later, or were you given the music first, and then you wrote the lyrics to fit with the music? Also, did you bring in Marco Werba as the music composer or was he selected by someone else?

[@MrWERBA]

Hi, nice to meet you. The beautiful lyrics written by Ellen Williams were added later. I was hired to write the film score and I involved Ellen.

[@dhightone6755]

@@MrWERBA Choosing Ellen Williams was a wise move on your part. She is one of the best classical-crossover singers in the world today. I didn't know she was also a lyrics writer, but this song proves she is skilled at writing good song lyrics.

[@MrWERBA]

@@dhightone6755 I know. She is a wonderful singer and she was perfect for this song. This is why I chose her.

[@pianodesu]

​@@MrWERBA Curious about the TV screen on the wall counting measures and beats. Is it somehow synchronized with conductor's hands movement? I wonder how it does that. Camera movement software or some electronic baton? Or the beat is dictated by computer, it doesn't seem so though as it's seems irregular.

[@MrWERBA]

@@pianodesu Good question. We didn't use it in that specific score. It is usually used for the syncs with the Time code of a movie but also for the tempo.
