Explanation

The sentence uses "before" with a clause referring to the future from the perspective of the main clause. Simple Present tense (come) is used in time clauses (introduced by before, after, when, etc.) to refer to future time. "Came" is past tense, "comes" is third person singular, and "am coming" is present continuous.
