Beirut – Transatlantique Lyrics 16 years ago
The sound of the song makes it have an atmosphere of a past relationship uniting again (perhaps closure) and at how she relies for answers on him... the burning of the house last night could be anything trivial, referring at how she relies on him. As the song develops, the music makes it sound as if the closure was finally established, and he calls upon singin for the last call and the last fall, because thats all that last encounter was. He provided comfort, a home to her, before but not anymore (I was your home).

opinion, thats what is sounds like it to me ha.
