"Young Lover"

How long has this been going on?
I found you in the bathtub
With your clothing on
Oh, so what?
Your mother did a number
So I get gloves of rubber
To clean up the spill
Yeah

Young lover, begging you please to wake up
Young lover, I wish that I was your drug
Young lover, I miss the taste of your tongue
Young lover, I wish your love was enough, enough

You say you got no room to talk, babe
You're boozin' on a midday
And I don't see no cake
Oh, but these pills
I can't even pronounce them
Your thousand watts of light dim
Then you're gone again
Yeah

Young lover, begging you please to wake up
Young lover, I wish that I was your drug
Young lover, I miss the taste of your tongue
Young lover, I wish your love was enough, enough, enough

We were in Paris, the Eiffel was shining
All that I wanted was lyin' on tilin'
I heard the robins and thought they were sirens
Wake up, young lover, I thought you were dyin'

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
Ooh
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
Ooh, young lover
