Erica America

(álbum: I Know What Love Isn't - 2012)

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
