Damon Albarn – The Tower of Montevideo Lyrics

Damon Albarn The Tower of Montevideo Lyrics

The Tower of Montevideo has many rooms
Some of them are empty since I left you
Standing in silhouette by the long window
Drinking coffee and scrutinised 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
Where they talked 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
Tower of Montevideo

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

In the Tower of Montevideo
