Won't Have To Wait Too Long Lyrics - Uriah Heep

It's a quarter to seven on a Saturday morning 

I open my eyes after the Friday night 

I don't worry about the rain upon my window 

'Cos where I'm going I know the sun will always shine 

So now I'm heading away down to Rio de Janeiro 

I'll be leaving all my lonely times behind 

And if I'm looking for love in Rio de Janeiro 

There'll be someone there I know who'll find the time 

In this golden place, there's a smiling face 

I've got to find 

And I won't have to wait too long 

Before she's mine 

My friends are telling me I'm chasing rainbows 

Or searching for the gold beneath the sea 

But rainbows only shine when it's been raining 

And gold can never keep you company 

So now I'm wonderin' what to say in conversation 

To the lady of my dreams that I should meet 

If I speak to her in the language of all nations 

Then I'm sure that she'd be knocked right off her feet 

And I know she will, then I'll love her till 

The end of time 

And I won't have to wait too long 

Before she's mine 

Do you know why I've to wait? 

Well, I've been happy enough in Rio de Janeiro 

I've got a woman here that I can call my own 

It doesn't matter if I'm living here or there 

'Cos she used to live next door to me back home 

So if you're thinking that I've settled down forever 

Well, I'll be telling you you've made a big mistake 

'Cos I'll be heading away down to Denver, Colorado 

There's a woman there I've got to try and make 

She can fill the hole in my heart and soul 

For a long, long time 

And I won't have to wait too long 

Before she's mine 

You know I won't have to wait too long 

But you know I won't have to wait too long 

Don't you know I won't have to wait too long 

I told you I won't have to wait too long 

But you know I won't have to wait too long 

But you know I won't have to wait too long
