Two Sleepy People
Kay Kyser & Kay Kyser and His Orchestra Lyrics

Here we are, out of cigarettes,
We are currently in a situation where we are without cigarettes.

Holding hands and yawning,
We are holding hands and yawning simultaneously.

Look how late it gets.
It is quite late in the night.

Two sleepy people by dawn's early light,
The two of us are really drowsy as the sun begins to rise.

And too much in love to say goodnight.
We are so deeply in love with each other that we don't want this night to end.

Here we are, in a cozy chair;
We have moved to a cozy chair.

Pickin' on a wishbone from the frigidaire.
We are eating and playing with a wishbone from the refrigerator.

Two sleepy people with nothing to say,
We are not engaging in a conversation, but feeling tired.

And too much in love to break away.
Our love for each other is so strong that we don't want to be separated.

Do you remember the nights we used to linger in the hall?
Do you recall the times when we would spend long periods in the hallway?

Your father didn't like me at all.
Your father held a disliking for me.

Do you remember the reason why we married in the fall?
Do you remember why we decided to marry during the autumn season?

To rent this little nest and get a bit of rest.
We got married to rent this cozy place for ourselves and get some rest.

Well, here we are just about the same,
We are still in the same situation.

Foggy little fella, drowsy little dame.
Both of us are feeling drowsy and sleepy.

Two sleepy people by dawn's early light,
We are barely awake as the sun starts to rise.

And too much in love to say goodnight.
Our love and affection for each other is so strong that we don't want to say goodbye to this moment.
