lyrics

I know just how to whisper
And I know how to sing soft
I know that I need room to build
And I know when to layoff

I know to say the same words
And I know how to repeat
I know to start each line the same
And then I know to sound real sweet

And I know just how to sing it
And I know how to change the tune
I know how to draw you closer
And I know how to make you swoon

And I know when to sing higher
And I know when to get intense
And I rapid fire lyrics like I can’t get them out fast enough
And hope that you can make it make sense

And I know to sing with passion
And I know it’s over the top
And I know that on a scale of one to ten that these emotions
Are eleven and they’re not gonna stop

But I don’t know where to breathe here
So I let the music fall
And I don’t know how he did it
Making love songs like Jim Steinman did, y’all.
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all

Everybody in the band kicks in at once
And it hits you like a cartoon piano
And every note in the song is taking aim at your soul
Like a cannon

The beating of your heart is in time with the drums
And it’s building up to something huge

You can’t take it anymore, you’re starting to cry
Either from the feelings or from rolling your eyes

How can we follow it? Well how about a solo
On multiple guitars just for you!

I can make you feel emotions
I can make it dripping with schlock
I can make every note no matter how high it goes
I can make every one of you rock

I can make it last forever
Or I can make it 6 minutes long
I can make a solemn promise that we’re over halfway
And I can make it til the end of the song

But I’m never gonna make it without you
You can wait to hit the bathroom stall
And I’m never gonna do it like Jim did
Making love songs like Jim Steinman did, y’all
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all
(Making love songs) like Jim Steinman did, y'all
(Repeat for approximately another 1:30)
