Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight) es una canción del grupo sueco ABBA. Fue escrita por Benny Andersson y Björn Ulvaeus, específicamente para los álbumes Greatest Hits Vol. 2 y también se lanzó como single. La inspiración para la canción vino de la práctica de las discotecas de cerrar a medianoche, lo que llevaba a las personas a buscar compañía para no regresar a casa solas.
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 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... Ah ah ah ah Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight... Ah ah ah ah
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
