The Tower of Montevideo has many rooms
Some of them are empty since I left you (Since I left you)
Standing in silhouette by the long window
Drinking coffee and scrutinized by the black cat
Who lies on the day bed and abandons the world
As the hours slide off the page like clouds somewhere else

In the Tower of Montevideo

Once there was cinema and we had parties
And the light at the top of the tower could reach Argentina
(Since I left you)
Where they talk behind doors of new worlds and faraway places
And the portrait of the artist was kept down in the basement
In the Tower of Montevideo

The Tower of Montevideo

I can hear music, I can hear footsteps
Ghost of the empty room in Montevideo
In the Tower of Montevideo
