I was born in distant 1980
The year that Irish Johnny Logan won
Thirty years ago, they still remember
So dream away
Today's the day
I'm singing out my song

When I join this grand parade of winners
And we've made this song a worldwide hit
I will buy oh my own mike to sing in
And all the jobs I've had before I'm surely gonna quit

Beautiful song is on the radio, is in the tv shows and plays on and on
Beautiful song that everybody hums and everybody loves (2X)

My Mom said you'll grow and be a singer
Dad just smiled and gave me my guitar
I do my best, and I'll be so much better
Brightest of the highest and the farthest of the stars

And on that day when Sir Mick Jagger phones me
Tell him, please, that I am very busy
Writing brand new songs with Paul McCartney
So sorry Mick, I'll call you back, one day I'll call you back...

Beautiful song is on the radio, is in the tv shows and plays on and on
Beautiful song that everybody hums and everybody loves (5X)
