The Heritage Orchestra & Jules Buckley & Pete Tong Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take me and do as you will
Have what you want, your way's always the best way, ah huh
I have succumbed to this passive sensation
Peacefully falling away
I am a zombie your wish will command me
Laugh as I fall to my knees
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me
Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me
Can I control this empty delusion?
Lost in the fire below
And you come running your eyes will be open, woo
And when you come back, I'll be as you want me
Only so eager to please
My little song will keep you beside me
Thinking your name as I sing
Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me
Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me
Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me
Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me
Come, come, come to my sweet melody
Come, come, come to my sweet melody
Come, come, come to my sweet melody
Come, come, come to my sweet melody
Sing it back to me
A sweet melody
Yeah, oh
Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Bring it back

Sing it back to me, oh

Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me, yeah
The lyrics of "Sing It Back" revolve around surrendering oneself to someone else's control and becoming a passive participant in a relationship. The singer admits to being willing to do whatever the other person wants, acknowledging that their way is always the best way. This passive sensation is compared to being a zombie, implying a lack of autonomy and self-awareness. The chorus reinforces this idea of surrender and obedience, with the singer asking to be brought back and sung back to – indicating a desire to return to a state of subservience.
The second verse delves deeper into this relationship dynamic, with the singer questioning their own agency and wondering if they can control their own emotions or if they are lost in a delusion. The line about being "eager to please" suggests a desire for validation and a fear of rejection. The final section of the song invites the listener to come to the singer's "sweet melody," continuing the theme of submission and dependence.
Overall, "Sing It Back" speaks to the complexities of power dynamics in relationships and the desire for control and validation.

Wonderful song
@VORATIN
Very nice job 👍💖
@Samn3212
Amazing song and I appreciate the Donna Summer motif but, personally, I would have enjoyed it if the second half was more like the first. Feels like two tracks in one.
@MrKeeft1
