Come and See Me
Drake/PartyNextDoor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Doesn't make sense now
Shit just got real, things are getting intense now
I hear you talkin' 'bout we a lot, oh, you speak French now?
Giving me the signs so I gotta take a hint now
I hit you up like "Do you wanna hang right now?"
On the East Side and you know I'm with the gang right now
You say do I own a watch, do I know what time it is right now
It's after 2AM and that's asking a lot of you right now

All she talkin' bout is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me
All she ever say is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me

I been up for two whole days thinking what I did to keep you going
Thumbing through the voicemails that you left me telling me where I went wrong
I'll admit I'm sorry when I feel I'm truly sorry
Things change, people change, feelings change too
Never thought the circumstances woulda changed you
You said you never traded no, (Yeah you said that)
And I believed you when they told me don't, (Yeah thought you meant that)
But either way you're still invited and I can't even lie to you

Swear these days all you say is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me
All she hit me with is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me

Why you gotta start girl, why you gotta start?
I know we make time for the things that we want
I know you got another nigga tryna play the part
Just 'cause he got a heart don't mean he got heart
Could be standing in a field, and he still ain't in the field
If anything should change then I thought we had a deal
Lately you keep questioning what you get out the deal
Doing things to make me feel the way I make you feel
How hard is it to let you know when I'm coming home
That way you could be prepared, maybe take a couple sick days and not miss pay
I don't even know what things are looking like inside of your place and how it's decorated
This thing is getting one-sided, I can't even lie to you right now

All she talkin' bout is come and see me for once
Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me
All she hit me with is come and see me for once




Come and see me for once
You don't ever come to me, you don't ever come to me

Overall Meaning

The song “Come and See Me” by Drake and PartyNextDoor is a slow and sultry track that is about the struggles of a long-distance relationship. The track starts with Drake addressing his partner’s change in behavior as he questions if she wants to hang out with him or not. He also mentions how she uses the term “we” and wonders if she has pressed the language before. The rapper goes on to say that he has tried to reach out, but she never reciprocates in the same manner. The song continues with Drake expressing his apologies for any wrong that he might have done and how he is trying to make up for it. He even mentions becoming more transparent with his partner but laments about the difficulty of maintaining a relationship when they are miles apart.


The chorus is the most prominent part of the song as it repeats the phrase “All she talks about is come and see me for once.” The rapper acknowledges that his partner is asking for something that she has not been able to get from him. She wants him to come see her, and he admits that he has not made the effort to do so. The chorus is a plea to his partner to give him another chance, to make time for each other, and not let the relationship drift apart.


The song is a reflection of Drake's personal life and challenges that he has faced in his relationships. Drake has previously admitted that he could not be a good partner because of his tumultuous schedule and how his success has affected him. He often uses his music as a means of introspection, and “Come and See Me” is an example of that. The track features a unique blend of R&B and hip-hop with a slow tempo that creates a perfect mood for the emotional content of the song.
