Erasure

Gimme, gimme, gimme

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 T.V., I open the window, and I gaze into the night
B 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.
