Where Did You Come From?
Sky Harbor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got a plan for today
Finally figured out what's going on
Until I got this phone call
Telling me I was wrong

The news was different today
There was color in the black and white
Headline's read, "The world is different today"
Are you ready for a different life, yeah?

Ooh
Where did you come from?
Ooh
Where did you come from?

I didn't see you
Standing there all along
How long have you been there?
Why couldn't I see you before?

Why do phone calls from fate
Always seem too late?
I guess it's time for my own rules to break
As I take this leap of faith, yeah

Where did you come from?
Could you stay a while?
Could you stay a while with me




Could you stay a while right here, yeah?
Where did you come from?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sky Harbor's song "Where Did You Come From?" portray a sense of confusion and uncertainty in the singer's life. At the beginning of the song, the singer feels like they have a plan for the day and everything is under control until they receive a phone call that contradicts their beliefs. The news is different that day, and it prompts the singer to question their life choices and wonder if it's time for a different, possibly better, life. The chorus asks a rhetorical question: where did the love interest of the singer, who seemingly came out of nowhere, come from? The singer didn't see them standing there all along, and they wonder how long they've been there and why they couldn't see them before.
