Mandisa, “Back to You”

Contemporary Christian star Mandisa has released Back to You as the second single from her latest album, Overcomer. The title track spent ten weeks at number one, so Back to You has a lot to live up to. Its summery feel and irresistible bass line make it a prime candidate for Top 10 consideration, and AC seems to have warmed up enough to it.

If Back to You makes the Top 10, Mandisa will become the first female artist to ever score two consecutive Top 10 hits from two consecutive albums. (The album What If We Were Real earned Mandisa her first solo number one hit with Stronger; Waiting for Tomorrow peaked at number three.)

BACK TO YOU Lyrics
Mandisa

Back to you…

I could never say enough to thank You
For everything You’ve done for me
And I might think I could do enough to show You
But I know that’s just a crazy dream

This shouldn’t be complicated
This isn’t that hard to see
It’s not about what I do for You
It’s what You’ve done for me

You gave Your love, You gave Your life
You gave Your everything and I
Wanna give it all back
Give it all back to You
You took a heart so black and blue
And piece by piece You make it new
The only thing left, the only thing left to do
Is give it all back to You
Give it all back to You

I just want to be a life that You use
I want all of me to be all for You
And when I get it wrong You stick with me
Ain’t that the truth
It’s just what You do

This shouldn’t be complicated
This isn’t that hard to see
It’s not about what I do for You
It’s what You’ve done for me

You gave Your love, You gave Your life
You gave Your everything and I
Wanna give it all back
Give it all back to You
You took a heart so black and blue
And piece by piece You make it new
The only thing left, the only thing left to do
Is give it all back to You
Give it all back to You

I won’t forget what You did
How You died so I could live
I don’t deserve this kind of love
I’ll testify, testify how You gave Your life for mine
The only thing I know to do is give it all back to You

It’s not about what I do for You
It’s what You’ve done for me

You gave Your love, You gave Your life
You gave Your everything and I
Wanna give it all back
Give it all back to You
You took a heart so black and blue
And piece by piece You make it new
The only thing left, the only thing left to do
Is give it all back to You
Give it all back to You
