“Young Lover” dresses up a startling and depressing encounter as an energetic, glam-rock adventure. The song recounts the moment where someone, as Clark never specified if it was actually her, walked in on somebody who had overdosed in a bathtub.

[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
No, I, young lover, I'm begging you please to wake up
Young lover, I wish that I was your drug
No, I, young lover, I miss the taste of your tongue
No, I, young lover, I wish love was enough, enough
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
No, I, young lover, I'm begging you please to wake up
Young lover, I wish that I was your drug
No, I, young lover, I miss the taste of your tongue
No, I, young lover, I wish 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 and thought they were sirens
Wake up, young lover, I thought you were dyin'
[Outro]
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
No, I, young lover
