Not a pining love song, but a popish, upbeat, conversely Sci-fi-spirited jingle ... But for the cello, the overall sound is similar to The Pretenders'. 'Back to Me' was written with a Sci-fi theme, akin to another of our songs, 'Red Sands of Mars.' To wit:

Story Behind the Song
Feeling relatively helpless about conditions here on Earth, the song evolved from that emotion. It is a song about losing touch with the Earth ... Mother Earth or even God, if you will.
The theme might well serve as a comtemporary epilogue to 'The Man Who Fell to Earth.' Bowie might even be moved to a feeling of nostalga ... I would cretainly like to know!!!
Lyrics
Crazy notion of human kind . . .
No land can be owned!
Only nature's contract binds . . .
You will see, when the great day comes!
Chorus:
Come back to me! I’m waiting patiently!
Come back to me, I’m waiting patiently . . .
No time to waste
On our great mistakes!
It's time to meet the face of fate!
Gardens on Mercury,
Factories on Mars,
Test tube humans controlling the stars . . .
Chorus:
Come back to me! I'm waiting patiently!
Come back to me, I'm waiting patiently . . .
What have we done?
Are we not one?
Everything's managed, Nowhere to run . . .
Time and blood, are on our hands
You are the way,
Don't sink where you stand!
Come back to me! I'm waiting patiently!
Come back, come back . . .
