Bare Heels
Style: Chamber folk

[Verse 1]
My bare heels rest on the rug
Damp wool, and the fire low
You reach and pull the blanket snug
This is the only place I go

[Pre-chorus]
I have loved you in the loud years
I have loved you in the still
Every version quiets my fears

[Chorus]
Amber, you are the room I stand in
Steady as the floor beneath
Amber, you're the truth I'm banking on
Long after all the noise leaves

[Verse 2]
You laugh and the whole house softens
I forget what I was afraid of
Some nights we say nothing often
And that's still enough love

[Pre-chorus]
I have loved you in the loud years
I have loved you in the still
Every version quiets my fears

[Chorus]
Amber, you are the room I stand in
Steady as the floor beneath
Amber, you're the truth I'm banking on
Long after all the noise leaves

[Bridge]
Nothing about this needs to be bigger
No grander word will do
I just want to stay a little longer
However long I'm given, with you

[Chorus]
Amber, you are the room I stand in
Steady as the floor beneath
Amber, you're the truth I'm banking on
Long after all the noise leaves

[Outro]
My heels still rest where they landed
Warm now, and not alone
