The lyrics of this song imply a sense of longing and nostalgia. The narrator is reflecting on a remembered time when they lived in Nica Libres at dusk. They recall the faithful disposing of a generation and the mountains whispering knowingly. This section has a melancholic tone that is furthered by a chorus that mentions ordering a colada and counting dollars while watching eagles soar in circles. This could be interpreted as a reminder of their past life of luxury that they can't quite recreate. The post-chorus line of “forever, forever, such a beautiful thing” speaks of longing for simpler days and better moments. The refrain of “is that enough, is that enough?” could be interpreted as a sign of weariness and resignation. The end of the song has no clear resolution and the narrator appears to be left in the same state of nostalgia as before. The song therefore speaks of the longing for a past that can never be reclaimed, and the bittersweet realisation that it will forever remain out of reach.
