Young Lover piano version by St. Vincent Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How long has this been going on?
I found you in the bathtub with all your clothing on
Oh, so what? Your mother did a number
So I get gloves of rubber, clean up the spill
[Chorus]
Young lover, I'm begging you please to wake up
Young lover, I wish that I was your drug
Young lover, I miss the taste of your tongue
No, I, young lover, I wish that love was enough, enough
[Verse 2]
You say, “You got no room to talk, babe
You're boozing 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 and then you're gone again, you’re gone again
[Chorus]
Young lover, I'm begging you please to wake up
Young lover, I wish that I was your drug
Young lover, I miss the taste of your tongue
No, I, young lover, I wish that love was enough, enough, enough
[Bridge]
We were in Paris, the Eiffel was shining
All that I wanted was lying on tiling
I heard the robins, I thought they were sirens
Wake up, young lover, I thought you were dying
[Outro]
I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I
I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
How long has this been going on?
I found you in the bathtub with all your clothing on
Oh, so what? Your mother did a number
So I get gloves of rubber, clean up the spill
[Chorus]
Young lover, I'm begging you please to wake up
Young lover, I wish that I was your drug
Young lover, I miss the taste of your tongue
No, I, young lover, I wish that love was enough, enough
[Verse 2]
You say, “You got no room to talk, babe
You're boozing 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 and then you're gone again, you’re gone again
[Chorus]
Young lover, I'm begging you please to wake up
Young lover, I wish that I was your drug
Young lover, I miss the taste of your tongue
No, I, young lover, I wish that love was enough, enough, enough
[Bridge]
We were in Paris, the Eiffel was shining
All that I wanted was lying on tiling
I heard the robins, I thought they were sirens
Wake up, young lover, I thought you were dying
[Outro]
I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I
I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
