Things Left Unsaid

“Things Left Unsaid” is a Lovibond May Rowanwood song from the Rowanwood music catalogue, centered on themes of helpless presence, loss, and unspoken connection, carried by a near-ambient folk arrangement defined by space, restraint, and quiet tension.

I can feel your death
Rising like a storm
I can not see your light
Feel your warmth

Can you hear me?
Are you in there?
Is the life between us unspoken?

What did I say?
What didn’t I say?
Do you know?
Do you understand?

Things left unsaid

Do you remember, mum,
When I was small
When I was sick
Or frightened

How you’d stay up with me
’til the break of day
And the demands of work
Stole you away

And now I sit here, helpless beside you,

What did I say?
Ooo-ooo-ooo
What didn’t I say?
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Do you know?
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Do you understand?

Do you know?
Ooo-ooo-ooo
Do you understand?
Ooo-ooo-ooo

Things left unsaid

Do you know?
