Jon Troast - Favorites Lyrics

Sitting on a blanket by an old abandoned boat
Eating apple, cherry, and huckleberry pie
You take a bite and ask me which one I like the most
Well the best one's always been
The one I'm eating at the time

Don't ask me to pick favorites unless you've got a while
I'll tell you all the different reasons
That each one makes me smile
So if you were to ask my favorite person, place, and time
I'd say you here by this boat right now is fine

We talk about my travels, how I wish you'd come along
And which would be my favorite state to live
Carolina, California, each one's got a dozen songs
But there's always something to appreciate
About the state I'm in

Don't ask me to pick favorites unless you've got a while
I'll tell you all the different reasons
That each one makes me smile
So if you were to ask my favorite person, place, and time
I'd say you here by this boat right now is fine

When you've got something you like
What's the use in talking favorites
'Cause if you stop and take the time
The one you have now just might be it

When it's time to settle down
It's the reason some folks don't
The reason some folks say they can't commit
'Cause there might be something better
Another ship, another shore
But for me this blanket, old abandoned boat
And you is it

Don't ask me to pick favorites unless you've got a while
I'll tell you all the different reasons
That you can make me smile
So if you were to ask my favorite person, place, and time
I'd say you here by this boat right now is fine
