Barefoot on the Warm Tiles

by Zuri Bell

“A gold square on the floor and nowhere else to be. It is the calmest groove on the record.”

Lyrics

Sun slides in through the window glass
Paints a gold square, I let it pass
Under my toes the tiles are warm
Soft little start to a sunny morning

No rush, no shoes
Nothing to lose

Barefoot, barefoot, on the warm tiles
Barefoot, barefoot, wearing my smile
Step, step, slide, slide
Let the morning take me for a ride
Barefoot, barefoot, feeling alive
Warm tiles under me, I'm doing fine

Kettle singing in the corner light
Curtains dancing, everything's bright
I spin around with my cup in hand
Kitchen floor is my dance land

No rush, no shoes
Nothing to lose

Barefoot, barefoot, on the warm tiles
Barefoot, barefoot, wearing my smile
Step, step, slide, slide
Let the morning take me for a ride
Barefoot, barefoot, feeling alive
Warm tiles under me, I'm doing fine

Hum along, hum along
Every morning needs a song
Slow it down, sway with me
Easy as the breeze can be

Barefoot, barefoot, on the warm tiles
Barefoot, barefoot, wearing my smile
Step, step, slide, slide
Let the morning take me for a ride
Barefoot, barefoot, feeling alive
Warm tiles under me, I'm doing fine

Barefoot, barefoot, soft and slow
Warm tiles, sunshine, off we go
