"Until You Come Back to Me" is a song by British group Floy Joy, which was released in 1984 as the second single from their debut studio album Into the Hot.
[3] On its release, Dylan Jones Uppers of Record Mirror selected the "torch-like ballad" as "single of the week" and wrote, "These sweet and sulty chatterbox hazy rhythms should place the Floy Joys on the chart-mart in next to no time.
"[4] Richard Cook of New Musical Express commented, "This is a beautiful piece of work, exactly the kind of tender, dignified soul groove Sade wanted to hit on 'Why Can't We Live Together'."
He added, "Carroll Thompson sings this plea for supplication with a deceptive ease of a proper singer with a song to work on, embroidered by saxophones that bleed lyrical heartache and an underlie of rhythm which allows no chance for the tune to idle at any stopover.
"[5] Paul Massey of the Aberdeen Evening Express wrote, "Easily the best track on Into the Hot, and richly deserving of a chart place.
