Somewhere
Default Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've seen your face somewhere before I swear
Could it be I've met you somewhere else
It's the way you turn and look at me
Your eyes are different but they're much the same

Have I seen you before
Have I seen you before
Heaven told me they took him somewhere
Have I seen you before
Heaven told me they took you somewhere
Have I seen you before

I was with him when he left us
I feel he really never left at all
When I'm looking in this mirror
I see you in me and I feel so proud

Have I seen you before
Have I seen you before
Heaven told me they took him somewhere
Have I seen you before
Heaven told me they took you somewhere
Have I seen you before

Heaven told me they took you somewhere
Have I seen you before
Heaven told me they took you somewhere
Have I seen you before
Heaven told me they took you somewhere
Have I seen you before




Heaven told me they took you somewhere
Have I seen you before

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Default's song "Somewhere" speaks of a familiarity with someone, a sense of meeting them before, but not being able to recall where or when. The lyrics suggest that this familiarity transcends physical appearance, as the singer notes that the person's eyes may be different, but they still feel much the same. This could be interpreted as the feeling of a past-life connection or a profound sense of deja vu.


The chorus suggests that the singer may have lost someone close to them, whom they believe to be in heaven. The lyrics "Heaven told me they took him somewhere" and "Heaven told me they took you somewhere" could imply that the singer is searching for their lost loved one’s presence around them, hoping that there would be traces of them. The line, "I was with him when he left us, I feel he really never left at all," suggests that the singer believes that death is not the end of life, and the presence of their loved one still lingers around them.


The bridge of the song reinforces the notion that the person they feel so closely tied to could be their lost loved one. "I see you in me, and I feel so proud," shows the sense of pride they harbor for carrying a part of them everywhere they go. In summary, the song speaks of loss, love, and an unexplainable sense of familiarity with someone that goes beyond what is easily distinguishable.
