[Intro: R. Kelly & Mary J. Blige]
Yeah
Yo, Mary, what's up?
Oh, oh, hey
[Chorus: R. Kelly & Mary J. Blige]
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (It's on)
It's about time that we met (It's about time)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget (Oh, oh)
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (Oh, oh, on tonight)
It's about time that we met (It's about time)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget
[Verse 1: R. Kelly]
For so long, I waited for the chance
To be with you
And to lie with you, baby
In my dreams, I take you by the hand
In our house on the beach
Making love on jet black sand, oh, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: R. Kelly]
Baby, finally the time (The time)
Has come for us to share (To share)
A joy that we both need (Oh)
And nothing can compare (It's on)
[Chorus: R. Kelly]
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (It's on)
It's about time that we met (It's about time that we met)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (Ooh, lady, tonight, it's on)
It's about time that we met (It's about time that we met)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget
[Verse 2: Mary J. Blige]
I waited all my life
Boy, for you to come along and make that joyful sacrifice
Two kids, a dog, and a home
It's like a dream come to life
When I looked into your dazed eyes
[Pre-Chorus: R. Kelly & Mary J. Blige]
Baby, finally the time (Now's the time)
Has come for us to share (To share)
A joy that we both need (Oh, oh)
And nothing can compare
[Chorus: R. Kelly, Mary J. Blige, & Both]
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (Oh)
It's about time that we met (It's about time)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (And it's on tonight)
It's about time that we met (Oh, oh, oh)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget
[Bridge: R. Kelly & Mary J. Blige, Mary J. Blige, R. Kelly]
All my life, I've waited to get next to you
You, baby, you, you, oh
And every night, I've prayed your love would come my way
And finally the time (Finally) has come for us to meet, oh
[Chorus: R. Kelly & Mary J. Blige]
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (And it's on, and it's on)
It's about time that we met (It's about time)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget (And it's on)
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (And it's on)
It's about time that we met (It's on)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget
[Outro: R. Kelly & Mary J. Blige]
And it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on, and it's on tonight (Hey)
It's about time that we met (It's on)
And it's about time, a love I won't forget
