In My Room
Jen Kalicharan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Another party
Another dance floor
Another jockey
In a crowded room all I saw was you
It was like like, like the movies
You a film star
Into my heart
Not my average move but I made the move
And last night felt like a past life
I see u in my dreams I could just die
Daddy said don't cry baby you will get by
But every time I close my eyes I got
Champagne problems
Spilling Cristal on my Chanel shoes
Tasted like Blu but I drink till noon
Live on 57th but i'm in my room (in my room)
Champagne problems
Wish that I could meet up for toast for two
All I ever needed was a taste of you
Anything like it babe it just won't do
Like you do
Another Tom Ford
Another Louis
Another Jean Paul
Another Tommy
Break the bank but my heart's broken into two
It was like like
We were dancing
You looking so fine
But I had to go before midnight
Tragedy for the books that i don't know you
And last night felt like a past life
I see u in my dreams I could just die
Daddy said don't cry baby you will get by
But every time I close my eyes I got
Champagne problems
Spilling Cristal on my Chanel shoes
Tasted like Blu but I drink till noon
Live on 57th but i'm in my room (in my room)
Champagne problems
Wish that I could meet up for toast for two
All I ever needed was a taste of you
Anything like it babe it just won't do
Like you do
Who's gonna bring me roses
Who's ever gunna notice
Know when i'm down and hurting
Who's ever gonna be worth it
Champagne problems
Spilling Cristal on my Chanel shoes
Tasted like Blu but I drink till noon
Live on 57th but i'm in my room (in my room)
Champagne problems
Wish that I could meet up for toast for two
All I ever needed was a taste of you
Anything like it babe it just won't do
Like you do
The lyrics of Jen Kalicharan's song "In My Room" delve into themes of longing, unrequited love, and the lingering pain that comes from a failed connection. The opening lines, "Another gold ring, Another party, Another dance floor, Another jockey," suggest a cycle of repetitive experiences and encounters, where the singer constantly finds themselves in similar situations. However, amidst the crowded room, their attention is solely focused on one person, indicated by the line "In a crowded room all I saw was you." This line encapsulates their infatuation and captivation with this individual, suggesting a strong attraction.
The lyrics continue to depict the intensity of this infatuation, comparing it to a movie-like experience: "It was like like, like the movies, You a film star, Crossing the scene, Into my heart." Here, the singer views the person of interest as a glamorous figure who has managed to enter their heart unexpectedly. Nevertheless, the lyrics express that making a move on this person is not typical for the singer, indicating that taking risks in love is out of character for them. Yet, despite the reservations, they still pursue the connection.
The chorus, "Champagne problems, Spilling Cristal on my Chanel shoes, Tasted like Blu but I drink till noon, Live on 57th but I'm in my room," showcases the singer's desire for a luxurious and passionate love. They long to indulge in the finest things in life, comparing the experience of being with this person to expensive champagne and designer fashion. However, they are ultimately left unfulfilled, confined to their room, and unable to physically be with the person they desire.
The second verse continues with the depiction of the singer's internal conflict, as they recount a brief encounter with the person of interest during a dance. The line "But I had to go before midnight, Tragedy for the books that I don't know you" implies that circumstances prevented them from fully exploring this connection, leaving a sense of regret and unfinished business. Once again, the line "last night felt like a past life" emphasizes the intensity of their feelings and the impact this person has on their thoughts and dreams.
The final stanza poses questions about who will bring them joy and comfort in the future, suggesting that they yearn for someone who will notice their pain and be there for them. The song concludes with a repetition of the chorus, reiterating the frustration and longing for a taste of the person they desire, acknowledging that nothing else can compare to what they could potentially have together.
Overall, "In My Room" delves into the complexities of unattainable love, highlighting the singer's yearning for a connection that surpasses superficial encounters. The lyrics capture the feelings of longing, regret, and a desire for emotional depth, ultimately conveying the difficulty of finding someone who truly understands and fulfills their needs.
