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 the 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...

Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away?
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight!
Take me through the darkness till the break of the day.

Movie stars, find the end of the rainbow,
With that fortune to win.
It's so different from the world I'm living in.
Tired of TV, 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.

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 till the break of the day.

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.
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 till the break of the day.
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 till the break of the day.

Gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme, gimme
Gimme, gimme, gimme
