The riff work in the second half elevates the song even further, adding layers of enjoyment to the overall composition. Lyrically, “Ambre” explores themes of nostalgia, arrested youth, and the tension between adulthood and an enduring teenage spirit. It captures the feeling of being emotionally stuck at 17, clinging to the music, fashion, freedom, and fearlessness of youth while navigating the burdens of adult responsibilities like work, parenting, and routine.

At its core, the song is about longing for a carefree past and the innocence of teenage freedom. It beautifully reflects the conflict of feeling young inside, even as society labels you an adult, and embraces the journey of maturity without losing that vibrant, youthful essence.
