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

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 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 to the break of the day

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 to the break of the day
