What's Another Year

about

I've always loved this song! It's written by the late great Shay Healy and performed by Johnny Logan at the 1980 Eurovision Contest. The song won for Ireland. I started performing it on my online show www.facebook.com/littleroomsbigmusic some years ago when Shay Heal died. I wanted to pay tribute to him and his huge talent. I then performed it with Martin Leahy. Then Martin recorded and produced this version with Aine O'Gorman and myself. We love it. Aine and I have been playing together for years, and I love how we sing this beautiful song together. We are submitting or own song to Eurovision 2024, to represent Ireland in the competition. All monies raised from the song will got to the Parkinson's Association of Ireland.

lyrics

Lyrics
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 aren't 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
'Cause that's the only way to hide my 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?
What's another year?
What's another year?
