Jim Steinman Quotes

Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you my answer in the morning...

Stop right there!
I gotta know right now!
Before we go any further — Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?

Ain't no doubt about it
We were doubly blessed
Cause we were barely seventeen
And we were barely dressed.

Though it's cold and lonely in the deep dark night
I can see paradise by the dashboard light.

It never felt so good, it never felt so right
And we're glowing like the metal on the edge of a knife.

I never had a girl
Looking any better than you did
And all the kids at school
They were wishing they were me that night.

Then I'm dying at the bottom of a pit in the blazing sun
All torn and twisted at the foot of a burning bike
And I think somebody somewhere must be tolling a bell
And the last thing I see is my heart,
Still beating,
Breaking out of my body
And flying away
Like a bat out of Hell.

Nothing ever grows in this rotten old hole
And everything is stunted and lost
And nothing really rocks and nothing really rolls
And nothing's ever worth the cost.<p> And I know that I'm damned if I never get out
And maybe I'm damned if I do
But with every other beat I got left in my heart
You know I'd rather be damned with you.

Like a bat out of Hell
I'll be gone when the morning comes.
But when the day is done
And the sun goes down
And the moonlight's shining through
Then like a sinner before the gates of heaven
I'll come crawling on back to you.

Oh baby you're the only thing in this whole world
That's pure and good and right
And wherever you are and wherever you go
There's always gonna be some light.

The sirens are screaming and the fires are howling
Way down in the valley tonight.
There's a man in the shadows with a gun in his eye
And a blade shining oh so bright.
There's evil in the air
And there's thunder in the sky
And a killer's on the bloodshot streets.

I've been called over the top. How silly. If you don't go over the top, you can't see what's on the other side.

I have travelled across the universe through the years to find her. Sometimes going all the way is just a start...

It's all we ever wanted
And all we'll ever need
And now it's slipping through our fingers
Faster than the speed of night.

Let me show you how to drive me crazy,
Let me show you how to make me feel so good,
Let me show you how to take me to the edge of the stars and back again.
You've gotta show me how to drive you crazy,
You've gotta show me all the things you wanna happen to you,
We've gotta tell each other everything, we always wanted someone to do.
