"Time to Make You Mine" is a song recorded by British singer Lisa Stansfield for her 1991 album, Real Love. It was written by Stansfield, Ian Devaney and Andy Morris, and produced by Devaney and Morris.

The song received positive reviews from music critics. "Time to Make You Mine" was released as the third single in Europe on 2 March 1992 and in Japan on 3 June 1992. It included "All Around the World" recorded as a duet with Barry White. All artist royalties from this single were donated to the charity Trading Places. "Time to Make You Mine" was remixed by Masters at Work (Little Louie Vega and Kenny "Dope" Gonzalez), Martin Glover and The Orb. The John Lindauer-directed music video was also released. The song reached number fourteen in the United Kingdom.

On 21 June 1992, Arista Records released in Japan a special CD maxi single "Real Woman Hip Selection" which included remixes and B-sides form the Real Love era. Arista used the same single cover art as for the "Time to Make You Mine" single. In 2003, "Time to Make You Mine" was included on Biography: The Greatest Hits. In 2014, the remixes of "Time to Make You Mine" were included on the deluxe 2CD + DVD re-release of Real Love and on People Hold On ... The Remix Anthology (also on The Collection 1989–2003), including previously unreleased Bomb Squad Remix by The Bomb Squad and Sunship Mix by Ceri Evans from the Brand New Heavies. Both remixes were created for the US release of "Time to Make You Mine." However, this single release plan was abandoned, as Stansfield recorded her new song for The Bodyguard, "Someday (I'm Coming Back)."
