"Erica America" lyrics

Jens Lekman Lyrics

"Erica America"

Erica America
Fremont street lies empty
A cleaning vehicle drew a line across my camera's lens
I whispered our names - "Erica and Jens"

Erica America
They demolished The Frontier Casino
And the day after the air smelled like popcorn and ladies' perfume
Sinatra had his shit figured out, I presume

Erica America

Erica America
Summer never ends here
I said to myself, as if that would make things better
Summer is exhausting me with its exhaust fumes and empty promises
And promises of no more empty promises

Erica America
I wish I'd never met you
Like I wish I'd never tasted wine
Or tasted it from lips that weren't mine
Now every drop tastes more bitter all the time

Erica America

Erica America
I wish I'd never met you
Like I wish I'd never tasted wine
Or tasted it from lips that weren't mine

Become Someone Else's
Some Dandruff On Your Shoulder
She Just Don't Want To Be With You Anymore
I Want A Pair Of Cowboy Boots
The World Moves On
The End Of The World Is Bigger Than Love
I Know What Love Isn't
Every Little Hair Knows Your Name
