“What’s Another Year” was Johnny Logan’s first Eurovision Song Contest winner, achieving success in the 1980 edition of the Contest. This was Ireland’s second Contest victory. Composed by Shay Healy, the song reached number one in the UK Singles Chart for two weeks in May.
I've been waiting such a long time
Looking out for you
But you're not here
What's another year?
I've been waking such a long time
Reaching out for you
But you're not near
What's another year?
What's another year
To someone who's lost everything that he owns?
What's another year
To someone who's getting used to being alone?
I've been praying such a long time
It's the only way to hide the fear
What's another year?
What's another year
To someone who's lost everything that he owns?
What's another year
To someone who's getting used to being alone?
I've been crying such a long time
With such a lot of pain in every tear
What's another year?
To someone who is getting used to being alone
What's another year?
For someone who is getting used to being alone
What's another year?
To someone who is getting used to being alone
What’s Another Year was written by Shay Healy.
