Originally recording for her husband's independent record label, Cristy Lane had several hit singles before switching to United Artists Records in 1979. She would have further success as a country music artist with the label.[2] Lane recorded her next single release in October 1978 at LSI Studios, located in Nashville, Tennessee. The recording session was produced by Charlie Black, who had previously produced Lane's earlier singles. "Come to My Love" was composed by Sam Lorber and Jeff Silbar.[3]
