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 winks 
 
 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 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 
  
 
 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... 
 
 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
 
 Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! a man after midnight... 
 
 Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! a man after midnight...
