D'Angelo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watchin' winter turn to spring
Walkin' in the dark
Watchin' lovers do their thing
That's the time
I feel like making love to you
That's the time
Oh, baby
When you talk to me
When you're moanin' sweet and low
When you touch me
And my feelings start to show, show
That's the time
I feel like making love to you
That's the time
I feel like making dreams come true
Oh
That's the time
I feel like making love to you
That's the time
I feel like making dreams come true
Oh, baby
In a restaurant
Holdin' hands by candlelight
Want to touch you
Wantin' you with all my might
Yeah, yeah
That's the time
I feel like making love to you
That's the time
I feel like making dreams come true
Oh, baby
That's the time (that's the time)
I feel like making love to you
(I said, I wanna make, I wanna make, make love to you, baby)
That's the time
I feel like making dreams come true
Oh, baby
That's the time
I feel like making love to you
That's the time
I feel like making dreams come true
That's the time (that's the time, yeah)
I feel like making love to you
That's the time
I feel like making dreams come true
(Do you wanna make dreams, wanna make dreams come true, baby?)
That's the time
I feel like making love to you
That's the time
I feel like making dreams come true, oh, baby
The lyrics of D'Angelo's song "Feel Like Makin' Love" describe the feeling of being in love with someone and the different situations that can spark a desire for intimacy. In the first verse, he sets the scene of a couple in a park, watching winter turn to spring, and walking in the dark while watching other lovers around them. This creates a passionate ambiance and encourages the desire for physical closeness.
The chorus of the song repeats the lyrics "That's the time I feel like making love to you, that's the time I feel like making dreams come true." This suggests that the desire for intimacy comes from a deep connection and mutual understanding between two people. The second verse describes the effect that the person has on D'Angelo when they talk, moan sweetly, and touch him, provoking strong emotions and feelings of arousal.
The final verse takes place in a restaurant, holding hands by candlelight with the intensifying desire to touch the person and wanting them with all of his might. The song uses a smooth and sultry R&B melody to enhance the sensuality of the lyrics and convey the emotion and longing involved in wanting to make love to someone special.
