[Intro: Mary J. Blige]
I can remember when
We had, we had it all
You and I, you and I
Yeah

[Refrain: Mary J. Blige & C.L. Smooth]
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
When they reminisce over you, my God
Make the time tonight
Let’s make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
Make the time tonight
Let’s make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
Make the time tonight

[Verse 1: Mary J. Blige]
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: Mary J. Blige & C.L. Smooth]
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)
When they reminisce over you, my God
With the love we shared

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige & C.L. Smooth]
Let's make the time tonight
While the feeling's right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
(Reminisce, reminisce, reminisce)
Let's make the time tonight
While the feeling's right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God

[Verse 2: Mary J. Blige]
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: Mary J. Blige & C.L. Smooth]
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)
When they reminisce over you, my God
With the love we shared

[Chorus: Mary J. Blige & C.L. Smooth]
Let's make the time tonight
While the feeling's right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
(Reminisce, reminisce)
Let's make the time tonight (All the love)
While the feeling's right (Love we had)
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
(Reminisce, yeah)

[Rap: C.L. Smooth]
Yes, boo, you reminisce too, now peep it
Under B-boy here, I found Victoria’s Secret
My God, I’ll make your head nod when I come through
If it’s me you’re gonna do, you better work out, boo
So reminisce the caramel king, you know the Mecca don swing
Give you everything else but the ring
So déjà vu, tell you what I’m gonna do
When they reminisce over you, my God

[Interlude: C.L. Smooth]
Yeah, C.L. Smooth and Mary J. Blige, on a rige
To reminisce and it goes like this, check it on out
When they reminisce over you, my God
Yeah, uh, feel the funk, baby
When they reminisce over you, my God
I reminisce, I reminisce

[Outro: Mary J. Blige & C.L. Smooth]
(Ooh, baby)
Let’s make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
Make the time tonight (Reminisce)
Let’s make the time tonight
(I know we've been here before)
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
(Some candlelight and you)
When they reminisce over you, my God
(Walking softly through my door)
Make the time tonight
Let’s make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right (Come on in, my sweet)
Reminisce on the love we had (Tonight we're gonna be...)
When they reminisce over you, my God
Make the time tonight
Let’s make the time tonight
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
Make the time tonight
Let’s make the time tonight (Baby, baby)
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
(I can see you standing there)
Make the time tonight
Let’s make the time tonight
(Like an angel)
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
When they reminisce over you, my God
Make the time tonight (Ooh, reminisce)
Let’s make the time tonight (Reminisce)
Reminisce oh so right
Reminisce on the love we had
Make the time tonight

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.
