         Logan first won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1980, with the song "What's Another Year" written by Shay Healy. In 1984, Logan composed the song "Terminal 3" which placed second at Eurovision, performed by Linda Martin. He won the contest for a second time in 1987 with "Hold Me Now", which he also wrote himself. His third win came in 1992, as composer of Linda Martin's winning entry "Why Me?".

          "Hold Me Now" is a song composed and performed by Irish singer Johnny Logan. It became the winner of the 1987 Eurovision Song Contest. Logan had previously won with "What's Another Year?" in the 1980 Contest and would go on to write the winner of the 1992 Contest ("Why Me?" for Linda Martin for whom he had previously written "Terminal 3" at the 1984 Contest). The song is usually sung by Bohemians at home matches in Dalymount Park.

Don't...

Don't close your heart to how you feel...

Dream...

And don't be afraid the dream's not real...

Close your eyes,

Pretend it's just the two of us again...

Make believe this moment's here to stay...

Touch...

Touch me the way you used to do...

I know...

Tonight could be all i have with you...

From now on you'll be with someone else

Instead of me...

So tonight... let's build this memory...

For the last time...

Hold me now

Don't cry

Don't say a word just...

Hold me now...

And i... will know though we're apart

We'll always be together

Forever in love...

What do you say when words are not enough?

Time...

Time will be kind once we're apart

And your tears...

Tears will have no place in your heart

I wish i...

I could say how much i'll miss you when you're gone

All my love for you will go on and on and...

Hold me now

Don't cry

Don't say a word just...

Hold me now...

And try... to understand that...

I hope that last you'll find

What you've been searching for

Though i won't be there anymore...

I will always... love you...

Hold me now

Don't cry

Don't say a word just...

Hold me now...

And i... will know though we're apart

We'll always be together

Forever inlove

What do you say when words are not enough?

What can i say now my words are not enough...?
