Channel Orange In Your Living Room Lyrics
[VERSE]
We met when I was drunk
That party didn’t actually suck
You made fun of how slow I drank
We had that mutual friend
Who introduced us at the end of the night
I felt it was right to keep words in my head
[Chorus]
But now I can't stop thinking about you
Each moment passes and my thoughts return to you
And the memory of us too
As we listen to channel orange in your living room
[VERSE]
Even when you’re away, that album makes me feel like you stayed To listen now would make me a fool again for you
[BRIDGE]
From the show we walked back to your house
Between the drinks and jokes I spout
I know I’m playing games I shouldn't play
[Chorus]
But now I can’t stop thinking about you (ooh ooh)
Why does the music make the pain so hard to lose?
I can’t bear it without you
As we listen to Channel Orange as I kissed her
She don't know it, I still miss her
Channel Orange in your living room
We met when I was drunk
That party didn’t actually suck
You made fun of how slow I drank
We had that mutual friend
Who introduced us at the end of the night
I felt it was right to keep words in my head
[Chorus]
But now I can't stop thinking about you
Each moment passes and my thoughts return to you
And the memory of us too
As we listen to channel orange in your living room
[VERSE]
Even when you’re away, that album makes me feel like you stayed To listen now would make me a fool again for you
[BRIDGE]
From the show we walked back to your house
Between the drinks and jokes I spout
I know I’m playing games I shouldn't play
[Chorus]
But now I can’t stop thinking about you (ooh ooh)
Why does the music make the pain so hard to lose?
I can’t bear it without you
As we listen to Channel Orange as I kissed her
She don't know it, I still miss her
Channel Orange in your living room

Genius Annotation
“Channel Orange In Your Living Room is about the unique power of music to be a “moment freezer,” so to speak. Sometimes music feels liquid; it takes on both the shape and essence of the space in which it is experienced, and that is where it will live forever in one’s memory.
When I listen to Frank Ocean’s album Channel Orange and I visualize a season or an age or a person, that’s going to be very different from what you see. This inherent shape-shifting quality of music fascinates me. I want people to hear my song and allow it to take the shape of their living room – which is to say, their space.” ~ Charlie Burg
