Nick Davies leaves nothing unsaid on “Let Me Know”
A tender, gratitude-soaked tribute to a mother — and a promise that nothing important will go unsaid between them.
“A son's thank-you letter set to music — leave nothing unsaid, especially the love.”
In this deeply tender tribute to his mother, Nick Davies crafts a song overflowing with warmth, gratitude, and unfiltered affection. “Let Me Know” is not a catalogue of regrets — it is a celebration of the extraordinary bond between a mother and her son, one built on trust, patience, and unwavering support. Each refrain is an invitation to openness: “If there's anything I've missed… let me know.” It's the voice of someone who cherishes every shared moment and wants nothing left unsaid between them.
Davies highlights the quiet heroism of maternal love — the way his mother stood by him, encouraged him, protected him, and helped him grow. Lines like “You've stood right beside me even though I never can repay the debt I owe” speak not of guilt, but of profound appreciation. This is a son in awe of the woman who shaped his world.
The song radiates tenderness as he pledges his presence in return: “I'll stay right beside you…” It's a beautiful expression of the cyclical nature of love — what she once gave him, he now gives back freely.
Throughout the song, Davies reinforces the idea that their relationship is rooted in mutual care and emotional honesty. The request — “Let me know” — isn't about uncovering past hurts; it's about ensuring that love continues to flow openly between them. With its gentle melody and heartfelt lyrics, the piece becomes a reminder that the most meaningful connections are those where both people feel seen, valued, and deeply loved.
“Let Me Know” stands as one of Davies' most intimate and uplifting works — a musical embrace, a thank-you letter, and a promise wrapped into one.

If there's something that I've said that made you lie awake in bed Don't ignore it I'll make up for it Let me know If there's anything I've missed If there's a long egregious list, I adore you, So I implore you Let me know All the times I made you want to cry, You never bat an eye I've always wondered why If I broke your heart some time ago, You never let it show You never let me know and you've stood right beside me even though I never can repay the debt I owe I hope you know how much you mean to me Ooh I don't want bridges to be burned I don't want any stone unturned When you leave me So believe me Let me know We're only guaranteed today, So if there's anything to say, Don't forget me Just come and get me Let me know If I ever dealt you cruel replies with hatred in my eyes Please know that they were lies Had I known how quickly life would go I would not have stooped so low I would've let you know that I'll stay right beside you even though I never can repay the debt I owe If you don't know how much you mean to me, Please let me know
