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 room    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 to 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 these 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  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 these 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  Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away  Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight  Take me through the darkness to the break of the day  © EMI WATERFORD MUSIC INC; UNION SONGS AB;
