Sad Songs In A Hotel Room Lyrics – Joshua Bassett
Sad Songs In A Hotel Room Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Joshua Bassett]
I'm wearing a robe
The same ones we left on the hotel floor
Just one year ago
"Do not disturb" hanging on the door
[Pre-Chorus: Joshua Bassett]
How the hell we end up, where we did?
Don't you think it's messed up? It all went to ѕh¡t
It's kind of depressing being here alone
I miss you so I pick up the phone
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett]
And I order room service for one
Champagne mini bar bottles are done
I've got a balcony room with a view
Velvet curtains are closed
I'm singing sad songs in a hotel room, Mmm
Where I once held you
I'm singing sad songs in a hotel room, Mmm
[Verse 2: Joshua Bassett]
The neighbors are knockin', they just wanna sleep
It's 3 AM while my guitar gently weeps
I flip through these old magazines
Dream destinations, we promised we'd see, Oh
[Pre-Chorus: Joshua Bassett]
How the hell we end up where we did?
In one year, it all went to ѕh¡t
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett]
So I order room service for one
Champagne mini bar bottles are done
I've got a balcony room with a view
Velvet curtains are closed
I'm singing sad songs in a hotel room, Oh
Where I once held you
I'm singing sad songs in a hotel room
Mm, ah, oh
[Bridge: Joshua Bassett]
We checked in together, I never checked out
Guess it's heartbreak hotel 'cause just look at us now
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett]
Oh, I order room service for one
Champagne mini bar bottles are done
I've got a balcony room with a view
Velvet curtains are closed
I'm singing sad songs in a hotel room, Mmm
Where I once held you
I'm singing sad songs in a hotel room, Mmm
Sad Songs In A Hotel Room Lyrics Explained
"Sad Songs In A Hotel Room" by Joshua Bassett is a song about the aftermath of a failed relationship. It paints a vivid picture of the singer's emotional state as he finds himself alone in a hotel room that once held beautiful memories. The song explores themes of nostalgia, loneliness, and heartbreak, using the hotel room as a symbol of the past and the pain of lost love. Let's break down the meaning of each paragraph.
[Verse 1]
In this verse, the singer, Joshua Bassett, sets the scene by describing himself wearing a robe in a hotel room. He reminisces about a past experience, mentioning that it happened just one year ago. The mention of the robe and the hotel floor suggests an intimate moment shared with someone. The "Do not disturb" sign hanging on the door signifies their desire for privacy and intimacy.
[Pre-Chorus]
In the pre-chorus, Joshua reflects on how their situation has drastically changed from that past year. He expresses a sense of regret and frustration about how everything has gone wrong. Being alone in the hotel room makes him feel down and lonely, prompting him to want to reach out to someone he misses, likely the person he shared the past experience with.
[Chorus]
The chorus reveals the emotional core of the song. Joshua orders room service for himself, but it's clear that he used to share this experience with someone special. The empty champagne bottles from the mini bar emphasize his solitude. He's in a luxurious balcony room with a view, but the velvet curtains are closed, symbolizing the emotional darkness and isolation he feels. He sings sad songs as he reflects on the past when he was with the person he loved, contrasting it with his current loneliness.
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, Joshua describes the inconvenience he's causing to his neighbors by playing the guitar at 3 AM. This indicates his inability to sleep and the emotional turmoil he's going through. He flips through old magazines featuring dream destinations, places he and the person he misses promised to visit together. This reflects the unfulfilled dreams and plans they had.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus is repeated, underscoring the sense of despair and confusion Joshua feels about the current state of their relationship.
[Bridge]
The bridge contains a poignant metaphor. Joshua says, "We checked in together, I never checked out." This line suggests that the relationship he once shared with someone has left a lasting emotional impact on him. The reference to the "heartbreak hotel" alludes to the emotional pain and despair he's experiencing in his current situation.
[Chorus]
The final chorus echoes the sentiments of the earlier choruses. Joshua is still ordering room service for one, surrounded by the remnants of what used to be a shared experience. He continues to sing sad songs in the hotel room, emphasizing the theme of longing for the past and the person he once held close.
In summary, "Sad Songs In A Hotel Room" is a melancholic song that explores the emotions of loneliness, regret, and nostalgia after the end of a meaningful relationship. The hotel room serves as a backdrop for these feelings, symbolizing the isolation and emptiness he now feels.
