That was my interpretation, as well.  Especially nowadays, the likelihood of 
growing old together is not good.  Here's a married couple that is fighting.  
The older man thinks about his late wife and purposefully keeps another man 
from distracting the wife.  The couple dance and reconnect through the dance. 
Perhaps realize they still love each other.  Perhaps she realizes after dancing 
with another man that what she and her husband have is special, and she'll give 
him another chance.  Maybe they'll grow old together like the older couple 
dancing on the floor.  I thought using tango was a wonderful way to express 
this.  All without dialogue.  Well-done.

Another possible interpretation is that the young woman reminds the 
older man of his wife who may have died. (Since she looks a lot like the 
woman in his pocket watch.)
