Erica America Lyrics & Chords By Jens Lekman

Erica America
Fremont Street lies empty
A cleaning vehicle
Drew a line across my camera 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
The 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 promise 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
