Two Sleepy People (with Hoagy Carmichael) - Carmichael, Ella Logan

Here we are

Out of cigarettes

Holding hands and yawning

Look how late it gets

Two sleepy people by dawn’s early light

And 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

And too much in love to break away

Do you remember?

The nights we used to linger in the hall?

Your father didn’t like me at all

Do you remember?

The reason why we married in the fall?

To rent this little nest

And get a bit of rest

Well, here we are

Just about the same

Foggy little fella

Drowsy little dame

Two sleepy people by dawn’s early light

And too much in love to say goodnight

(Instrumental)

Well, here we are

Just about the same

Foggy little fella

Drowsy little dame

Two sleepy people by dawn’s early light

And too much in love to say goodnight

Another verse (not present in the above recording):

Do you remember the nights we used to cuddle in the car?

Watching every last falling star

Do you remember the doctor said my health was under par?

And you my little schnooks

Were ruining your looks… so

Here we are… keeping up the pace

Letting each tomorrow slap us in the face

Two sleepy people by dawn’s early light

Much too much in love to say goodnight.
