【独立民谣】Favorites - Jon Troast
选自独立唱作人Jon Troast发行于2009年的专辑《Living Room》。这首简单朴素，恬适安谧的民谣，蕴含着诗性智慧，是关于生活、生命意味的询问和思考。
“裹着毛毯靠在你身边，吃刚洗过的新鲜樱桃，围着篝火听人弹吉他，不要问我最爱什么，不要让我选择，生活里每一丝美好都只存在于当下，那么真实。”via：same-app
《Favorites》
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
