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 (ooh)
Autumn winds
Blowing outside my window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the gloom (The gloom)

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

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 (it's like that)
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 (aint nobody)

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away (Yeah)
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (Gimme) A man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A man after midnight (Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme)
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A man after midnight (Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme)

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer (no one to hear my prayer)

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A man after midnight (yeah yeah)
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away (Won't somebody help me)
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (Gimme, gimme, gimme) A man after midnight (Here we go)
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day (break of day)

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A man after midnight (Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme)
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A man after midnight
