The song was originally released first in 2018 by NCT 127 in Japanese and Korean, in which WayV member Winwin participated in as part of the subunit.
"噩梦 (Come Back)" is an urban dance song that expresses the wounds of a loved one through a nightmare. The sound of the rough texture created by the combination of distorted synth and up-tempo beat is impressive. In addition, it is remarkable that the roar shown through rapping, which expresses the feelings of sadness, doubles the appeal of the song.

Go!
Oh 收到请回答不要沉默 Yeah, yeah
我能凭感觉超越时空 Oh
是你正用专属语言呼唤我 Yeah, yeah
在最沉的夜里
(等爱回应)
为何你轻微的叹息
已刮起飓风盘旋我天空
每当你入睡你闭眼的夜晚
我的世界黑暗降临
我要你 Come back, ooh
我连你的呼吸 都不想忘记 (我想你)
奔向我 Come back
原來沒有你的每一天
都是噩梦的领域
Every day
我要你 Come
被流浪在爱里我无处可回去
被孤单遗弃是谁让灯光寂静
千万张脸孔在人海中
只有你与我的频率相同
回忆向我涌现 我已得到教训
我没有聆听 你的声音 Sorry
教会我的是你
Come back to me
为何你轻微的叹息
已刮起飓风盘旋我天空
每当你入睡你闭眼的夜晚
我的世界黑暗降临
我要你 Come back, ooh
我连你的呼吸 都不想忘记 (我想你)
奔向我 Come back
原來沒有你的每一天
都是噩梦的领域
Every day
我要你 Come
被流浪在爱里我无处可回去
被孤单遗弃是谁让灯光寂静
我想念那些时光当我们一起
短暂的像美好的梦境 Oh
仅剩孤单的夜晚
漆黑是我最悲哀的油彩
画着我的徘徊
Yeah 再徘徊 Stay right there
Just react, that's right that (oh, bang)
你像 Melody 身影挥之不去的幽灵
我的极限与忍耐只到这里 Limit
Straight permanent
Black permanent
Tattoo 抹不去的痕迹
直到永远的印记
如果噩梦也有余韵
我愿为你徘徊到至今
Want you to wake me up now
Come back
(That's why I love you)
我要你 Come back, ooh
我连你的呼吸 都不想忘记 (我想你)
奔向我 Come back
原來沒有你的每一天
都是噩梦的领域
Every day
我要你 Come
被流浪在爱里我无处可回去
被孤单遗弃是谁让灯光寂静
我要你 Come back (别徘徊)
被孤单遗弃是你让灯光寂静
我要你 Come back
The song "Come Back" by WAYV tells the story of a person who cannot forget about someone who has left them, and they desperately want them to return. The lyrics begin with the singer asking if the other person wants to come back, as they can feel them calling to them in their own language. The chorus, which repeats throughout the song, emphasizes the singer's desire for the other person to return and how every day without them is a nightmare.
The second verse talks about how the singer feels abandoned and lost without the other person. They feel like they have nowhere to go, and the lights are quiet without them. The bridge of the song switches to a nostalgic tone, remembering the good times they shared together and how the singer misses those moments dearly. However, the final verse snaps back to the present, where the singer is still struggling and begging for the other person to come back.
Overall, "Come Back" is an emotional ballad that captures the feelings of heartbreak and longing. The lyrics express the deep need to be with someone and how their absence can feel like an unbearable nightmare.

@belphegor2605
Unpopular Opinion: Chinese songs actually sound better when WayV sang them. 🖤
@yesiam9982
I know right!!!

@sha2596
Absolutely NO HATE! But I feel like every NCT 127 covers that WayV did I liked better sung by WayV. I don't know if it has to do with the development of lyrics, but they just sound better to me in Chinese, sung by WayV, and that is very uncommon for me. I would normally choose a Korean song hands down because Korean as a language is easier on my ears (tonally) and easier for me to understand than Mandarin. Case in point, I can sing all the words to many Korean songs but can't sing to any in Mandarin. (ToT)
@JemXia1520
Agreeee 100000%
@JemXia1520
@Sha 259 sameeeee. This is on point
@HenderyXDj
It's weird how NCT 127 and WayV 's come back felt like a completely different song
@cathylili2
WayV, 我要你comeback 😭😭😭
@Anna_Bee
This may be my favorite example of WayV's dance style. Even though it's very similar to 127's version, their different changes/formations/execution is so smooth and groovy. They always have the perfect balance of pop, power, and grace. Such effortless swag too. <3 Love them!
