Was it me, or did it sound like the singer and Fernando were lovers?

The song is from the point of view of an old Spanish woman who's recollecting her memories of a civil war that her lover (Fernando) fought in. Back then he was brave and charming, but in the present day, he's just an alcoholic, washed-up old man. It's her longing for the time when she actually loved him.
