After leaving PWL in 1991, Jason starred in a revival of Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical 'Joseph & His Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat'. His version of the show's 'Any Dream Will Do' reached the UK #1 spot.
After numerous film and television projects Jason signed to Polydor Records and recorded a third album, "All Around The World", in 1993. This album was never released in his homeland Australia. The album was preceded by a UK Tour and 2 hit singles; "Mission Of Love" and a cover of "As Time Goes By". By the time the album was released, interest had dried up. The final single "All Around The World" was released in 1993.
Despite a high public profile, Donovan's star faded very quickly after his West End success. Indeed, for a brief period, Donovan was on the receiving end of open hostility from the same LGBT community which had supported his PWL era career after he sued a UK magazine for libel after it suggested - falsely - that Donovan may be homosexual.
Donovan is partnered with Angela Malloch, and they have two children together. He now works as the Heart.fm radio studios which broadcasts across the country

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well, I said that I will be here
And I will never let you down
People come and people go
But you're the one that I wanna know
When you said that you'll be leaving
In my mind there's no confusion
'Cause you know I'll always be around
When you want me don't look anywhere
Don't you know that i'll be there
When you need me, I'll be waiting
You can depend on my love
Whenever you're in need
You can dеpend on me
If you're lonеly or defeated
I just wanna let you know
Turn around, I will be waiting
