Two Sleepy People

(Hoagy Carmichael/Frank Loesser – 1938)

Here we are, out of cigarettes
Holding hands and yawning, look how late it gets
Two sleepy people by dawn's early light
Too much in love to say goodnight

Here we are, in the cozy chair
Pickin' on a wishbone from the Frigidaire
Two sleepy people with nothing to say
Too much in love to break away

Do you remember the nights we used to linger in the hall
Daddy didn't like you at all
Do you remember the reason why we married in the fall
To rent a little nest, and get a little rest

Well, here we are, just about the same
Foggy little fella, drowsy little dame
Two sleepy people by dawn's early light
Too much in love to say goodnight
