And I awake to find I am snowbound.
And my blood is spilling on the ground.
On this battlefield, the casualties,
Are when my friends become my enemies.
And I struggle on through the night,
With no lover by my side.
As she fades away into the sea,
She breaks my heart oh so callously.
So say a little prayer for me,
As you light another light for me,
'Cos the night is fading in on me,
And time, my friend, is just memory.
And I know you cannot feel the same.
But I'm handing you the blame.
As we stumble through this pageantry,
How we recoil, oh so readily.
So say a little prayer for me,
As you light another light for me,
'Cos the night is fading in on me,
And time, my friend, is just memory.
Let's wait and see,
If this hurt will take its toll,
Or be the light,
Through this dark night of my soul.
So say a little prayer for me,
As you light another light for me,
'Cos the night is fading in on me,
And time, my friend, is just memory.

Σtella's Greek-folk inflected pop sounds both vintage and subtly modern, like a lost gem sent from the magical nexus where 1966 meets 1986. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 16, 2022
