Erasure - Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! Lyrics
(b.andersson / b.ulvaeus)Half past twelve, and Im watching the late showIn 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.Theres not a soul out there;No one to hear my prayer...Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!Wont 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.Its so different from the world Im living in.Tired of t.v., I open the window,And I gaze into the night,But theres nothing there to see, no one in sight.Theres not a soul out there, no one to hear my prayer.Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!Wont 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!Theres not a soul out there, no one to hear my prayer.Gimme, gimme, gimme a man after midnight!Wont 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!Wont 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.Who needs love like thatWho needs love like thatTheres something going onSomething not quite rightTheres something strangeHappening to meTheres someone at the doorHear voices in my headIt seems things arent the wayThey ought to beWho needs love like thatWho needs love like thatIt seemed so clear beforeI held my point of viewI kept my conversationNever changedNow its all gone wrongWords are kind of hardNothing else around meLooks the sameWho needs love like thatWho needs love like thatLove can turn you upside-downAnd leave you coldIts plain to seeYoure losing all control(losing all control)Id like to understandLike to find out whyI cant remember allThe lines that you saidBut then I see your faceAnd nothing really countsDont tell me nowThis feeling will stayWho needs love like thatWho needs love like thatLove can turn you upside-downAnd leave you coldIts plain to seeYoure losing all control(losing all control)Who needs love like thatWho needs love like thatLove can turn you upside-downAnd leave you coldIts plain to seeYoure losing all control(losing all control)Oh lamourOh lamourBroke my heartNow Im aching for youMon amourWhats a boy in loveSupposed to doLooking for youYou were looking for meAlways reaching for youYou were too blind to seeOh love of my heartWhy leave me aloneIm falling apartNo good on my ownOh lamourBroke my heartNow Im aching for youMon amourWhats a boy in loveSupposed to doWhy throw it awayWhy walk out on meI just live for the dayFor the way it should beThere once was a timeHad you here by my sideYou said I wasnt your kindOnly here for the rideOh lamourBroke my heartNow Im aching for youMon amourWhats a boy in loveSupposed to doNo emotional tiesYou dont remember my nameI lay down and dieIm only to blameOh love of my heartIts up to you nowYou tore me apartI heard inside-outOh lamourBroke my heartNow Im aching for youMon amourWhats a boy in loveSupposed to doOh lamourBroke my heartNow Im aching for youMon amourWhats a boy in loveSupposed to doMy heart...so blueIve got her pictureIts there on the wallI cant remember whyI keep it at allThe doors are cold andAll the windows seem greyI write the bookTheres so much more I should sayWave goodbyeSee my heart...so blueWave goodbyeSee my heart...so blueAnd now its overI write it all downNo one to noticeOne less face in the crowdOur eyes are openWhen it suits us to sayDear God in heavenShow no mercy to meWave (wave) goodbyeSee my heart...so blueWave (wave) goodbyeLost for youI shed no tearsAnd theres no reason for shameA small consolationHides a stone with her nameJust a victimStill the light shines all brightIve got her pictureThink Ill hold it tonightWave goodbyeSee my heart...so blueWave goodbyeSee my heart...so blueWave (wave) goodbyeSee my heart...so blueWave (wave) goodbyeLost for you
