She states "uptown, downtown they're telling all kind of lies", insinuating that gossip and rumours have interfered with the relationship and that her partner is too easily swayed.

The 'Ivory Tower' of the song's title refers to the metaphorical, wishful place where Abreu believes that her partner is, unable to connect with the reality of how positive the relationship could potentially be.

The music video for "Ivory Tower" was directed by Jaakko Manninen and filmed in front of a green screen.

Red and purple 'clouds' erupt in the background, while lyrics from the song drift across the screen in grey typography.

"Ivory Tower" has become one of Abreu's most popular songs to be performed live and is a staple of her tour setlists.
