Coming Home
NCT U Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
우는 널 두고 돌아섰을 때
마지막 인사조차도
없었던 나에게
지칠 때면 돌아와 쉬라던 말
네 그 마음
눈이 오던 그 길로
돌아보면 너는 거기 있는 걸
여행이 끝날 때쯤
난 알게 될 거야
그때처럼 널 가슴에 가득 안고
I'm coming home
어둠이 날 반겨
길을 잃은 채 헤매고 있을 때
이 길의 끝에 만난 건
너라는 등불이
내 곁에서 언제나 빛나던 사실
You light of my life uh
눈이 오던 이 길로
한참을 왔어도
돌아보면 나를 향해 있는 너
내 시간이 다 해도 난
네 곁에 올 거야
습관처럼 따뜻했던 내 집으로
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
잘 왔다고 말해준 너의 그 말
Yeah yeah yeah
눈이 오던 그 길로
한참을 왔을 때
돌아보면 너는 거기 있는 걸
여행이 끝날 때쯤
난 알게 될 거야
그때처럼 가슴에 가득 안고 wow, wow
습관처럼 묻지도 않고 다시 곁으로
I'm coming home
Hoo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo
The song 'Coming Home' by NCT U is about the journey of a person who has left their loved one behind and gone on a journey. They acknowledge that leaving without even saying goodbye was a terrible mistake, but when the going gets tough, they remember the person's words telling them to come back and rest when they feel exhausted. The singer mentions that they have been walking on a snowy path for a long time and when they turn around, they find their loved one still waiting there for them, much like a lighthouse guiding them home. They continue walking on this path, even though it seems like they are lost because they know that this person is waiting for them on the other end. The phrase 'you light of my life' is used to describe this person, and the singer promises to come back to them, even after their time is up.
The lyrics of this song are relatable to anyone who has ever left their loved ones behind for any reason. It is always difficult to leave the person you love behind, and it is even more difficult if you part ways on a sour note. But the hope of reuniting with them someday keeps us going, and that's the theme of this song. The snowy path is a metaphor for the uncertain journey of life, and the loved one waiting at the end is a symbol of hope and comfort.
