Lyrics

[00:37.120] Erica America
[00:40.850] Fremont street lies empty
[00:44.720] A cleaning vehicle drew a line across my cameras lens
[00:57.870] I whispered our namesErica and Jens
[01:06.080] Erica America
[01:09.570] They demolished a frontier casino
[01:13.840] And the day after the air smelled like popcorn and ladies' perfume
[01:25.780] Sinatra had his shit figured out, I presume
[01:35.390] Erica America
[01:43.670] Erica America
[01:47.800] Summer never ends here
[01:51.630] I said to myself, as if that would make things better
[02:00.600] Summer is exhausting me with its exhaust fumes and empty promises
[02:12.920] And promises of no more empty promises
[02:19.180] Erica America
[02:25.170] I wish I'd never met you
[02:28.750] Like I wish I'd never tasted wine
[02:33.070] Or tasted it from lips that weren't mine
[02:42.140] Now every drop tastes more bitter all the time
[03:18.230] Erica America
[03:25.270] Erica America
[03:28.390] I wish I'd never met you
[03:33.540] Like I wish I'd never tasted wine
[03:37.750] Or tasted it from lips that weren't mine
