    Pretty sure it was a duet male and female mid 70's
    this is all I can remember
    "Here we are again, crazy in the head, gee your eyes are gorgeous especially in bed"

    The song is titled "Two Sleepy People" and it was written by Hoagy Carmichael and Frank Loesser about 80 years ago. It first appeared in the movie "Thanks for the Memories"

    Bob Hope and Shirley Ross recorded it in the 1930s and Julie London performed a solo version in the 60s. Carly Simon re-did it in the 70s, as did Art Garfunkel. Don't know who recorded the version you know.

    The original lyrics are as follows:

    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
    Picking out 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?
    Father didn't like you at all
    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 fellow, drowsy little dame
    Two sleepy people by dawn's early light
    And too much in love to say goodnight

    Here we are, don't we look a mess
    Lipstick on your collar and wrinkles in my dress
    Two sleepy people by dawn's early light
    And too much in love to say goodnight

    Here we are crazy in the head
    Gee your eyes are gorgeous even when they're red
    Two sleepy people who know very well
    They're too much in love to break the spell

    Do you remember the nights we used to cuddle in the car
    Watching every last fading star
    And remember the doctor said your health was under par
    And you my little snooks were ruining your looks

    Well, here we are keeping up the pace
    Letting each tomorrow slap us in the face
    Two sleepy people by dawn's early light
    And too much in love to say goodnight
