Back to Life Lyrics

Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to life, back to reality
Back to the here and now, yeah

Show me how decide
What you want from me
Tell me, maybe I could be there for you

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

Back to life, back to the present time
Back from a fantasy, yes
Tell me, now, take the initiative
I'll leave it in your hands until you're ready

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

How ever do you need me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you need me

I live at the top of the block
No more room for trouble and fuss
Need a change, a positive change
Look, it's me writing on the wall

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

Back to life, back to the day we have
Let's end this foolish game
Hear me out, don't let it waste away
Make up your mind so I know where I stand

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me
How ever do you want me
How ever do you need me

Soul II Soul is a two-time Grammy winning act that emerged at the end of the 1980s from London. The group initially attracted attention as a sound system, playing records at house and street parties (where their clothing style - dubbed "Funki Dred" - quickly made a splash, inspiring them to start a line of clothing). Founded by Jazzie B and featuring a changing roster of other musicians - notably Nellee Hooper, Simon Law, Phillip 'Daddae' Harvey and Caron Wheeler - Soul II Soul's experiments in music-making of their own resulted in the dub plate "Fairplay," which secured them a deal with Virgin Records. They had huge hits in 1989 with the singles "Keep on Movin'" and "Back to Life (However Do You Want Me)," both from their debut album Club Classics Vol. I. These songs (both featuring Wheeler on vocals) set the tone for early 90s mainstream dance music in the UK.

Their follow-up album, Vol. II: 1990 - A New Decade, yielded the hits "Get a Life" and "A Dream's a Dream," the latter featuring operatic vocals by Victoria Wilson-James. While their U.S. following declined somewhat following its release, Soul II Soul continued to have hits in the UK, including 1992's #4 single, "Joy."

Soul II Soul reached Volume 5 of their series for Virgin in 1995, then released 2 more albums for Island Records. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
