Au Pays du Cocaine as our wedding song: Good Idea or Bad Idea?

My partner and I are getting married in September. We’re thinking about Au Pays du Cocaine as our “first dance” song.
Musically, we think the song is gorgeous. Lyrically, we think I the sentiment of the song is romantic, especially the lyric “you can be free and still come home”.
Lastly, because we’re getting married on a boat, we think it’s fitting because of “sailor on a big green boat”.
My question though, is this an appropriate song? The lyrics could be interpreted as a one-sided or broken love.
Thoughts?
