Erotica Veronica
Miya Folick · Erotica Veronica
Such a tender kiss
Now you're drinking coffee
With a serial monogamist
Taste of saffron
Honey in my milk
Take the car
I'm asleep at the wheel
I just wanna flirt with a girl in broad daylight on the street
I can see her chapped lips, burnt by the sun, as she's leaning into me
Erotica Veronica
I can feel the softness, heavenly kiss, echoes on my tongue
Erotica
If it's scary
Baby talk to me
My sensual proclivities
Fuel your anxiety
But the city looks so green
Run my fingers in her hair
I don't wanna give up
Everything we've got here
I just wanna flirt with a girl in broad daylight on the street
I can see her chapped lips, burnt by the sun, as she's leaning into me
Erotica Veronica
I can feel the softness, heavenly kiss, echoes on my tongue
Erotica
Erotica
Erotica Veronica
I can feel the softness, heavenly kiss, echoes on my tongue
