Come into My Life is the debut album by American singer-songwriter Joyce Sims, released in 1987. It was the first Sleeping Bag Records album to be released on compact disc in the United States, and it was licensed to London/PolyGram Records throughout Europe.

The album's title track became Sims' biggest hit single, reaching number 10 on the US Billboard R&B Chart and number 7 in the UK Singles Chart. The album contains the full version of the title track, the hard version of "Lifetime Love", and "(You Are My) All and All". However, for unknown reasons, the soft version of "Lifetime Love", despite getting as much radio airplay as the hard version, was not included—but the UK remix of "All and All" was.

Sims wrote all of the songs on the album except for "Love Makes a Woman", a cover of a Barbara Acklin song.
