When Will I Be Loved? - Little River Band

Everybody can’t be heroes but some can still try

To make their lives a little different

Before the time it goes by

Now I live up around the north shore

In a room with no view

Every morning on that ferry, my view is filled with you

I’m gonna let my heart take me away

I’m gonna jump a little further every day

I’m gonna let my heart take me away

I’m the long jumping jeweller of Lavender Bay

She’s there every single morning

With about a hundred more

They watch as I come a runnin', they all know the score

I always like to be the last one

So I jump as she pulls away

The gap gets a little bit wider the longer I delay

I’m gonna let my heart take me away

I’m gonna jump a little further every day

I’m gonna let my heart take me away

I’m the long jumping jeweller of Lavender Bay

I handle gemstones in the city

In a little lane off Australia square

I got one picked out for you that looks so pretty

But I got to make you notice that I’m there

Well, I started to make the papers

And people began to bet

Would I end up with the lady

Or would I just end up getting wet?

Now I’m not gonna give you the answer

In, oh, so many words

But swimming in Sydney Harbor

You know is strictly for the birds

Tweet, tweet, for the birds

I’m gonna let my heart take me away

I’m gonna jump a little further every day

I’m gonna let my heart take me away

'Cause I’m the long jumping jeweller of Lavender Bay

I’m the long jumping jeweller of Lavender Bay

Long jump, long jumping jeweller

I live in Lavender Bay, hear what I say

I’m the long jumping jeweller of Lavender Bay

Long jumping jeweller, long jumping jeweller

I live in Lavender Bay, long jumping jeweller
