I don't take the time periods mentioned in this song to suggest anything about reincarnation, rather, I think the notable events in history are mentioned to show that the couple's partnership is so familiar and they've known each other so long that even if they think they can go their seperate ways, they can't, because they are fixed together by their relationship being put in the history books, so to speak.
