A gorgeously elegiac love song for Drexler's Uruguay which, as all great lyrics do, hits wherever you are from round these here parts.
"A dream and a passport,
We seek the North like birds
When the winter comes and the cold starts to bite.
And this has been a long winter,
It's been decades of bitter pills"
Whichever side of the big brown river you dwell, that hurts - as does the fact that it still applies a quarter of a century later.
