[Poetry one]
You booked the night train for a reason
So you could sit in that location in this hurt
Bustling crowds or silent sleepers
You're not sure which is worse

Despite the fact that the man in the vocal was going to suggest to his girlfriend, the first line suggests he knew he was going to get rejected. It seems like, all forth, he had a feeling the relationship wasn't working.

[Chorus]
Considering I dropped your manus while dancing
Left y'all out there standing
Brokenhearted on the landing
Champagne issues
Your mom's ring in your pocket
My picture in your wallet
Your centre was glass, I dropped it
Champagne bug

The chorus describes a rejected proposal. The first line most likely holds a double meaning. The narrator didn't take the homo's paw while dancing or in marriage. That left him with a ring and a broken centre.

[Verse ii]
You lot told your family for a reason
You couldn't go along information technology in
Your sister splashed out on the bottle
Now no one'south jubilant

Despite the first verse suggesting that the human being new he would get rejected, this verse says he told his family unit anyway. Of course, this but made the rejection worse.

[Chorus]
Dom Pérignon, you brought information technology
No crowd of friends applauded
Your hometown skeptics called it
Champagne problems
You had a speech communication, you're speechless
Dear slipped beyond your reaches
And I couldn't give a reason
Champagne problems

This chorus seems to reference three different songs from Folklore. The beginning is "The Last Keen American Dynasty." At i point in the song, Rebekah, "filled the pool with champagne and swam with the large names." The first line of this chorus is most likely a call back to that every bit Dom Pérignon is a very pop, expensive brand of champagne, definitely a "big name."

Then, Taylor sings "And I couldn't give you a reason." This seems to refer back to two songs from Folklore. The first is "The 1" when she sings, "In my defense, I have none." Then, in "Hoax" she says, "Stood on the cliffside/Screaming 'Give me a reason.'" Basically, what Taylor is saying hither is sometimes, you just don't have a reason, you simply know.

How evergreen, our group of friends
Don't recall we'll say that give-and-take once again
And presently they'll have the nerve to deck the halls
That we in one case walked through
One for the money, ii for the show
I never was ready so I watch you go
Sometimes you just don't know the answer
'Til someone'south on their knees and asks you
"She would've fabricated such a lovely bride
What a shame she's fucked in the caput," they said

The gossip being said virtually the narrator could be a reference to the gossip oftentimes spread about Taylor, specifically those who talk well-nigh why she isn't married yet.

Only yous'll find the existent affair instead
 She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred

[Chorus]
And concur your paw while dancing
Never leave y'all standing
Crestfallen on the landing
With champagne bug
Your mom'due south ring in your pocket
Her picture in your wallet
Yous won't call back all my
Champagne issues
