[Intro]
I can remember when
We had, we had it all
Reminisce on the love we had
You and I, you and I
Reminisce on the love we had
Yeah
You know, you know we had it all
You and I, yeah
Reminisce on the love we had

[Chorus]
Let's make the time tonight
Ooh, ooh ooh
While the feeling's right
Reminisce
Reminisce on the love we had
Let's make the time tonight
Oh
While the feeling's right
Ooh
Reminisce on the love we had

[Verse 1]
I know that we've been here before
The candle light and you
Walking softly through my door
Come on in, my sweet
How have you been?
You're so nice
But tonight, we're gonna be more than just friends

[Pre-Chorus]
I recall the days and ways of love we made
I still feel the heat when we share each other
Don't you feel the magic? The mystery's in the air
Let's go down to lover's lane (With the love we shared)
With the love we shared

[Chorus]
Let's make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
Make the time tonight
Reminisce, reminisce, reminisce
Let's make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
Make the time tonight

[Verse 2]
I can see you standing there alone
Like an angel trying to find his way home
I don't remember, how we fell apart
Here we are again, come on, fly into my heart

[Pre-Chorus]
I recall the days and ways of love we made
I still feel the heat when we share each other
Don't you feel the magic? The mystery's in the air
Let's go down to lover's lane (With the love we shared)
With the love we shared

[Chorus]
Let's make the time tonight
While the feeling's right
Reminisce on the love we had
Reminisce, reminisce
Let's make the time tonight
All the love
While the feeling's right
Love, yeah
Reminisce on the love we had
Reminisce

[Bridge]
Make the time tonight
The feeling's oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
Make the time tonight
Make the time tonight
The feeling's oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
Make the time tonight

[Chorus]
Let's make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
Make the time tonight
Let's make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
Make the time tonight

[Outro]
Ooh, baby
Reminisce
I know we've been here before
Some candlelight and you
Walking softly through my door
Let's make the time tonight
While the feeling's right
Come on in, my sweet
Reminisce on the love we had
Tonight we're gonna be more than just friends
Let's make the time tonight
While the feeling's right
Feeling's right
Reminisce on the love we had
My, my sweet baby
Let's make the time tonight
Baby, baby, ooh
While the feeling's right
Reminisce on the love we had
I can see you standing there
Let's make the time tonight
Like an angel
While the feeling's right
Reminisce on the love we had
Ooh boy
Let's make the time tonight
Ooh baby, reminisce
While the feeling's right
Reminisce
Reminisce on the love we had
On the love we had

Mary J. Blige

Mary Jane Blige (b. Jan 11 1971) grew up in the projects of Yonkers, New York. A random decision to record a cover of “Caught Up in the Rapture” by Anita Baker in a pop-up recording booth at a mall led MJB to getting signed by Uptown Entertainment. After providing background vocals on Father MC’s hit single “I’ll Do 4 U” in 1990, a young intern at Uptown named Sean “Puffy” Combs ended up executive producing Mary’s 1992 debut album What’s The 411?. Fusing hip-hop beats with Mary’s soulful voice earned her the nickname “Queen of Hip-Hop Soul”.

She followed up her debut with a string of critically acclaimed albums, including 1994’s My Life and 1997’s Share My World, as well as hit singles such as “Not Gon' Cry,” “Family Affair,” “Be Without You,” and “Just Fine.”

She also collaborated with rappers on a number of tracks, including Jay-Z’s “Can’t Knock the Hustle,” Ghostface Killah’s “All That I Got is You,” Wyclef’s “911,” Common’s “Come Close,” and Method Man’s “I’ll Be There for You/All I Need to Get By,” which was a platinum hit and won the two of them a Grammy Award in 1996 for Best Rap Performance By a Duo or Group.
