Batch put start arguments into a new line

Created a batch file to start a program with arguments. Work fine. I like to put test5.coffe and test2.coffe into separated lines. Here is my problem. It do not take the arguments anymore. Is there a way around it ?

Working Example

start "" "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\npm\coffee.cmd" --join test.js --compile test5.coffe test2.coffe

Not working Example

start "" "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\npm\coffee.cmd" --join test.js --compile 
test5.coffe 
test2.coffe

try this:

rem -- do not leave empty spaces after the ^s
start "" "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\npm\coffee.cmd" --join test.js --compile ^
test5.coffe ^
test2.coffe
