Come To Bed

I'm sitting here beneath the lamp.
My wife is begging me to camp.
     "Come lay beside me in the bed
And we will cover up our heads.
     To have a nice and peaceful dream.
We'll have to turn down this lamp's beam.
     "Tomorrow is another day"
I just heard my beautiful Scarlett say.
     If you will down beside me lay,
we'll cuddle and hug 'til break of day!
