Drake Feat. PARTYNEXTDOOR Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pool in my eyes, as you beg I testify that
I hate being alone, but you finally got me out my zone
I know and I miss you
Know when I'm tripping, oh, yes it's difficult
Thank God I'm Christian
Remember how this all begun, just us
You proved her right, every single night
Oh my, oh my, can't close my eyes
Can't open my eyes, don't know what to do
I'm in some kind of mood
You're so beautiful, you're so beautiful
We gotta listen to the old Kelly
You slipped out if you don't know already
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you know already
Things are getting hot and heavy
Things are getting hot and heavy
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you
Girl, I know you
Girl, I know you know already
What haven't we done before
What is not already mine?
Couldn't tell you what's not yours
You said that you think about me every day
Saturday to Saturday
You see that I've been going through it
Hoping everything's okay
I just want to let you know
Everything these days is textual
I just want to get a little sexual, with you
'Cause I remember way, way, back
With the waves under the wavecap
You were someone else's wife in fact
You didn't even look at me like that
Then it all just switched, over time
Step by step and you know what's next girl
I can't pretend
We gon' have to listen to some old Kelly
You slipped out if you don't know already
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you know already
Things are getting hot and heavy
Things are getting hot and heavy
Girl, I know you know already
Girl, I know you know how it's gon' go down
I know you babe
Girl, I know you know already
What haven't we done before
What is not already mine?
Couldn't tell you what's not yours
Yeah, you know already
Six months since I've been back in the Six
I can't help but wonder how you've been babe
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
Wonder how you've been
I've been out in Bel-Air like Will was
These streets got so familiar
Malibu coast where I meditate
Book a plane home then I hesitate
Scared to see what I left behind
It's weighing heavy on my mind and
I can't help but wonder how you've been babe
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
What are you on?
Gotta let me know something
Wonder how you've been, babe
The song “Since Way Back” is a collaborative effort by Drake and PARTYNEXTDOOR. The song talks about the struggles of a relationship that has its highs and lows, but both parties cannot seem to stay away from each other. Drake talks about his internal struggles, as he hates being alone but this person finally got him out of his personal space. He also reveals that he knows that this person can be difficult and his mother even warned him about them being bad news, but he still cannot stay away from them. The song also touches on the sexual aspect of the relationship, as they try to reconnect in every way possible. The chorus mainly states that they both know what they need and are on board with each other already.

Pool in my eyes, as you beg I testify that
As you plead with me, tears well up in my eyes and I testify that
I hate being alone, but you finally got me out my zone
I dislike being by myself, but you have succeeded in getting me out of my comfort zone
I know and I miss you
I understand and feel your absence
Know when I'm tripping, oh, yes it's difficult
You know when I am overthinking, and it's challenging for me
Thank God I'm Christian
I'm grateful that I have faith in Christ
Remember how this all begun, just us
Recall how it all started, just the two of us
My mama said you was bad news, like "dun-dun-dun-dun"
My mother warned me about you, saying you were bad news
You proved her right, every single night
You proved her right by your actions each night
Oh my, oh my, can't close my eyes
I can't help but express shock and disbelief that I can't even sleep
Can't open my eyes, don't know what to do
I can't even open my eyes, unsure of what to do next
I'm in some kind of mood
I'm in a particular state of mind
You're so beautiful, you're so beautiful
You are beautiful, very gorgeous
We gotta listen to the old Kelly
We need to listen to the earlier music of R. Kelly
You slipped out if you don't know already
You missed out if you were unaware
Girl, I know you know already
I know that you already know
Things are getting hot and heavy
The situation is becoming more intimate and passionate
What haven't we done before
What new intimate activity haven't we tried yet?
What is not already mine?
What is something that you have not given to me yet?
Couldn't tell you what's not yours
I can't say what you don't already have
You said that you think about me every day
You expressed that you think of me every day
Saturday to Saturday
Every week, from Saturday to Saturday
You see that I've been going through it
You have noticed that I am going through a difficult situation
Hoping everything's okay
I hope that everything is alright
I just want to let you know
I want to inform you
Everything these days is textual
Today, everything is communicated via texting
I just want to get a little sexual, with you
I simply want to become more intimate with you
'Cause I remember way, way, back
Because I reminisce about a time long ago
With the waves under the wavecap
While wearing a wave cap, my hair was wavy
You were someone else's wife in fact
You were married to someone else, in reality
You didn't even look at me like that
You didn't look at me romantically at all
Then it all just switched, over time
But things changed over time
Step by step and you know what's next, girl
Every step has led us to where we are at, girl, you know what is next
I can't pretend
I can't fake it
Girl, I know you know how it's gon' go down
Girl, I know you are aware of how things will turn out
Yeah, you know already
Yes, you already know
Six months since I've been back in the Six
It's been six months since I returned to Toronto
I can't help but wonder how you've been babe
I can't resist thinking about how you've been, babe
What are you on?
What have you been up to?
Gotta let me know something
You need to inform me about something
Wonder how you've been
I'm curious about how you have been doing
I've been out in Bel-Air like Will was
I've been hanging out in Bel-Air like Will Smith did in the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
These streets got so familiar
These streets have become very familiar to me
Malibu coast where I meditate
I meditate while being on the Malibu coast
Book a plane home then I hesitate
I book a plane to go home, then I hesitate to go
Scared to see what I left behind
I'm afraid to see what I have left behind
It's weighing heavy on my mind and
It's a heavy burden on my mind, and

Late night feeling tired worked myself out tireless I come back home to listen to this masterpiece peace automatically comes like waves at the beach while Drake soothingly sings into my ears all I can think about is what would I do without music...
