Cette chanson évoque la mélancolie d’un homme qui fait face à la perte et à l’amour. En achetant une vieille guitare, il se remémore sa compagne, Charlotte, qui lutte contre la maladie. Il exprime sa douleur et son chagrin à travers la musique, soulignant l'importance de chanter la vérité et d'embrasser les moments précieux, même quand tout semble sombre. La mélodie et les paroles sont un hommage à ceux qui nous sont chers, rappelant que la vie est fragile et qu'il est essentiel de chérir chaque instant. La nostalgie se mêle à l'idée de célébrer le souvenir des êtres aimés à travers des chansons.
