Words Never Spoken

from The New York Chapter (2011) by Freddy Fuego

/

lyrics

This song is dedicated to my grandmother, who passed away four years ago on this date.

She was the matriarch; she was the one who held everyone and everything together. I've never lost someone who was this close to me, and the songs on the album reflect some of the different ways I’ve dealt with this loss.

Without the storm, it would be impossible to truly appreciate a sunny day… unfortunately, sometimes you don’t know what you have until it’s gone. Rather than regret her departure, however, I am simply grateful that someone this special was such an important part of my life.

The things that we do for ourselves die with us, but the things that we do for others live on. She did so much for everyone that she met, that although her physical form is no longer here, her energy lives on in all of us. Death is a natural part of life – and now it is up to the rest of us to fill the void that she left.
