Erica America Lyrics - I Know What Love Isn't - Jens Lekman

Erica America 

Fremont street lies empty 

a cleaning vehicle drew a line across my cameras lens 

I whispered our namesErica and Jens 

Erica America 

they demolished a 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 Id never met you 

like I wish Id never tasted wine 

or tasted it from lips that werent mine 

now every drop tastes more bitter all the time 

Erica America 

Erica America 

I wish Id never met you 

like I wish Id never tasted wine 

or tasted it from lips that werent mine
