Half past twelve

And i'm watching the late show in my flat all alone

How i hate to spend the evening on my own

Autumn winds

Blowing outside my window as i look around the room

And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom

There's not a soul out there

No one to hear my prayer



(chorus)

Gimme! gimme! gimme! a man after midnight

Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away

Gimme! gimme! gimme! a man after midnight

Take me through the darkness to the break of the day



Movie stars

Find the end of the rainbow, with a fortune to win

It's so different from the world i'm living in

Tired of t.v.

I open the window and i gaze into the night

But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight

There's not a soul out there

No one to hear my prayer



(chorus)



Gimme! gimme! gimme! a man after midnight

Gimme! gimme! gimme! a man after midnight



There's not a soul out there

No one to hear my prayer



(chorus)



Gimme! gimme! gimme! a man after midnight

Gimme! gimme! gimme! a man after midnight
