Nostalgia and Longing in Drake's 'Come Thru'

Drake's song 'Come Thru' delves into themes of nostalgia, longing, and the complexities of past relationships. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of late-night memories and the yearning to reconnect with a former lover. Drake reminisces about the intimate moments they shared, such as spending nights together and the ease of their connection. The line 'We had the type of nights where mornin' comes too soon' encapsulates the fleeting yet impactful nature of their time together, suggesting that those moments were so cherished that time seemed to fly by.

The chorus, with its repetitive plea for the girl to 'come through,' underscores Drake's desire to rekindle the connection. He acknowledges the passage of time and the changes that have occurred, yet he believes that the chemistry and bond they shared remain intact. The lyrics 'I can still get you wet, and I can still make you laugh' highlight his confidence in their enduring connection, despite the time apart. This longing is further emphasized by his willingness to go out of his way to see her, even if it means disrupting his own routine.

Drake also touches on the distractions and challenges of his current lifestyle, contrasting it with the simplicity of their past. The mention of bringing 'DOA to the studio' and the chaotic environment filled with 'twerkin' goin' on' serves as a metaphor for the distractions that fame and success bring. Despite these distractions, he yearns for the comfort and familiarity of his past relationship, symbolized by the repeated invitation for her to 'come through.' The song ultimately captures the bittersweet nature of reminiscing about a past love, the desire to reconnect, and the hope that some things never change.
