Dame
LMT Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 phone
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 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 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

Half past twelve
It's midnight


And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
I'm sitting at home, watching TV by myself


How I hate to spend the evening on my own
I dislike being alone at night


Autumn winds
It's fall


Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
I'm sitting by the window noticing the wind


And it makes me so depressed to see the phone
I feel sad seeing no one has called me


There's not a soul out there
No one is around outside


No one to hear my prayer
No one to listen to my pleas


Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
I want a man to be with me at night

Famous people in Hollywood


Find the end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win
Find success and wealth


It's so different from the world I'm living in
My life is not like that


Tired of T.V.
I'm bored of watching TV


I open the window and I gaze into the night
I look outside the window


But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
There's nothing interesting outside


Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
I still want a man to be with me at night

Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
I seriously want someone to keep me company and make me happy


Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
I seriously want someone to stay with me until morning comes
