This song is all about retrospect, how a passionate relationship never stood a chance to become real, but was firey and embraced as an idealization. An almost religious level of chemistry that transcends logic and embraces blind faith. Stroking one another's egos (and more), being larger than life as in an entire city. It's not about logic, it's about a feeling, and how the thrill of it is enough to make you think it could last, even though it's not founded in anything of substance (aside from the accompaniment of wine).
