Jon grew up in a family of nine with four adopted siblings and as he says in one of his songs he wouldn't have wanted it any other way. On his website he says coming from such a big and diverse family has definitely helped him see things from a lot of different perspectives.
His lyrics are usually accompanied by either a guitar or piano.
The Most
Jon Troast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of the last part of the day
When things begin to close
Because I know there's one place
That's open all night long
And I love you the most
I love sleeping in and pillows
And fans spinning on the ceiling
I love scrambled eggs and pancakes
Brown sugar on my toast
But I love you the most
Well I can't stand being so far away from you
So I guess there's one thing I need to do
I need to find a way for you and I
To always be close
'Cause I love you the most
I love the sunny days with lots of rain
And puddles for paper boats
And watching the March wind
Take my kite up to the blue
I love the open roads and city streets
And highways down the coast
But I love you the most
Well I can't stand being so far away from you
So I guess there's one thing that I need to do
I need to find a way for you and I
To always be close
'Cause I love you the most
I love the nightlife and dancing
And meeting up with old friends
And talking about the old, old days
I love staying home
The lights down low
Making stories of our own
'Cause I love you
Yes, I love you
Will you love me the most?
The song “The Most” by Jon Troast is a heartfelt tribute to a loved one. The artist is describing all the things he loves, from the first part of the day to the last, but above all else he loves his partner the most.

When the artist is away from his partner, he feels the need to find a way to stay close to them because he loves them so much.
Throughout the song, the artist compares his love for his partner to things he enjoys in life. Each verse highlights a different aspect of his life and how his love for his partner surpasses everything else. He loves sunshine and rain, open roads and city streets, dancing and staying home, but again, he loves his partner the most. The repetition of “I love you the most” is both comforting and reassuring, emphasizing how deeply the artist feels for their loved one.
The song’s lyrics are relatable, and the artist’s use of simple things in life to portray the depth of his love makes it even more heartfelt. The song’s simplicity makes it an instant classic, and its sweet message is a reminder of the purity of true love.

I heard this sweet song and fell in love with it!
My husband and I chose this song to be in our wedding back in 2013.
We still listen and dance to it on every anniversary. This holds a very special place in our hearts and will for many many many years. ❤
Thank you for your creativity and heart behind the music.

Me and my best friends all decided to hold hands together for six hours. Halfway through it (late at night) we decided to go to chapters. We all fell asleep on the floor, holding hands. When we woke up, we heard this song playing and fell in love with it because it described our friendship. This now has become “our” song. It holds a special place in our hearts and it makes me forever grateful for my friends. Thank you Jon
