Regina Spektor - Reading Time With Pickle Lyrics
Walking home from workStop at the supermarket, condemement aisleA jar of pickles catches the eyeMake eye contact with a solitary pickleBought the jar took it homeMade it up the stairsMade it through the doorway, waded through the floortried to head in the general direction of the bathroom doorThe truest room in the whole damn houseSingin' love is the answer to a questionThat I have forgottenBut I know I've been askedAnd the answer has got to be love love loveNow Feeding time with TVThen sleeping time, not sleepySo reading time with pickleBut were the bed side lamp had beenIs now a milignant soft soft greenHas it always been this way?is it possible all this magic went unnoticed?Maybe things will start to changeAnd life will turn a better pageNo more rainSingin' love is the answerTo a question i know I've been askedAnd the answer has got to be love love loveTomorrow back to work againRun to the supermarket, running hopeful through the aislesHaven't been this happy in a long timeBut not a single jar was smiling afterallBut pickle jars are just pickle jarsAnd pickles are just picklesIngredients : water, salt, cucumber, garlic and pickling spicesBut love is the answer to a questionthat I've forgottenBut I know I've been askedAnd teh answere has got to be love
