I've always thought of this as a Fats Waller song. Apparently more of a
male/female duet.

Here's the Hoagy version of the 2nd brdge. He plays a line of Stardust, which
he wrote, in it.
Do you remember when we went dancing at (the Palomar/Winter Park)?
(stardust excerpt)
When it was over why naturally we cuddled in the car
(So you ran out of gas, and I was green as grass /
and when your car broke down, we walked back to town)
C13sus4 x33335 C9sus4 x33333
[Intro]
F/A Abdim Gm7 C13sus4 C9sus4
[Verse]
F/A Abdim Gm7 C13sus4
Here we are, out of cigarettes,
F/A Adim Gm7 C9
Holding hands and yawning, look how late it gets.
Am7 D7-9 Gm7 Bbm6
Two sleepy people by dawn's early light,
Am7 D7-9 G13 G7+5 Gm7 Caug
And too much in love to say goodnight.
[Verse]
F/A Abdim Gm7 C13sus4
Here we are, in the cozy chair,
F/A Adim Gm7 C9
Picking on a wishbone from the Frigidaire;
Am7 D7-9 Gm7 Bbm6
Two sleepy people with nothing to say,
Am7 D7-9 G13 C7 F Bb6/C F
And too much in love to break away.
[Bridge]
Bb
