I always took Budapest by Blimp to be about a love left behind. But rereading it recently (including the Hungarian lines), I wonder if it could be about an ancestor or family member forced to flee from war or persecution. Maybe it has elements of both. Or maybe it\'s just a romantic historical fantasy. Any which way, it\'s quite an evocative song.
