Naked House

  • Seductive country with a slow two-step sway
  • brushed drums and twangy slide guitar; verse rides sparse acoustic and bass
  • pre-chorus opens with pedal steel climbs
  • chorus lands on warm stacked harmonies and a handclap pulse. Close-mic male and female vocals
Naked House

Lyrics

Verse 1

Boxes piled by the door

Bare feet on the pine

We left the old place

And brought one little flame inside

Your shirt’s on the chair

Mine’s dropped on the mat

We still got the same pull

And baby, I’m right where it’s at

Pre-Chorus

This floor feels wide enough

For your hand in mine

New walls, new echoes

Old sweet lines.

Chorus

Naked room, naked house

Bare skin on the floor

Naked room, naked house

We don’t need much more

Wrap me up, hold me close

Till the cold rolls through

Naked room, naked house

It’s still just me and you

Verse 2

A quilt in a heap

By the side of the bed

We laugh at the boxes

And the mess that we made

Your hair on my chest

Your knee by my thigh

We’re unpacking forever

In a soft little pile

Pre-Chorus

Let the hammer rest

Let the keys hang low

We got a brand new place

And a body-heat glow

Chorus

Naked room, naked house

Bare skin on the floor

Naked room, naked house

We don’t need much more

Wrap me up, hold me close

Till the cold rolls through

Naked room, naked house

It’s still just me and you

Bridge

No curtains hung yet

No picture on the wall

But you fit me better

Than this house fits us all

So pull that blanket higher

Let the night slow down

If love can move with us

It can live in this town

Chorus

Naked room, naked house

Bare skin on the floor

Naked room, naked house

We don’t need much more

Wrap me up, hold me close

Till the cold rolls through

Naked room, naked house

It’s still just me and you
