1938.
I've always thought of this as a Fats Waller song. Apparently more of a male/female duet.

Composed by Hoagy Carmichael, lyrics by Frank Loesser. Here's Hoagy with Ella Logan:

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)

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]
Do you remember
[C7] [F] [C7] [F]
the nights we used to linger in the hall?
[F] [A7+5] [Dm7] [G13] [G7+5] [C9]
Your Father didn't like me at all.
[F]
Do you remember
[C7] [F] [A7] [Dm7]
the reason why we married in the fall?
[G13] [G7+5] [G7] [C7] [Caug]
To rent this little nest, and get a bit of rest.
Verse
[F/A] [Abdim] [Gm7] C13sus4
Well, here we are, just about the same,
[F/A] [Adim] [Gm7] [C9]
Foggy little fella, drowsy little dame;
[Am7] [D7-9] [Gm7] [Bbm6]
Two sleepy people by dawn's early light,
[Am7] [D7-9] [G13] [C7] [F] [Bb] [F]
And too much in love to say goodnight.
(solos)
Verse
[F/A] [Abdim] [Gm7] C13sus4
Here we are, don't we look a mess
[F/A] [Adim] [Gm7] [C9]
Lipstick on my collar, Wrinkles in your dress
[Am7] [D7-9] [Gm7] [Bbm6]
Two sleepy people, who know very well
[Am7] [D7-9] [G13] [G7+5] [Gm7] [Caug]
They're too much in love to break the spell
Verse
[F/A] [Abdim] [Gm7] C13sus4
Here we are, crazy in head
[F/A] [Adim] [Gm7] [C9]
Gee you're eyes are gorgeous, even when they're red
[Am7] [D7-9] [Gm7] [Bbm6]
Two sleepy people, by dawn's early light
[Am7] [D7-9] [G13] [C7] [F] [Bb] [F]
And too much in love to say goodnight
Bridge
[Bb]
Do you remember
[C7] [F] [C7] [F]
the nights we used to cuddle in the car
[F] [A7+5] [Dm7] [G13] [G7+5] [C9]
Watching every last fading star
[F] [C7] [F] [A7] [Dm7]
Remember the doctor said your health was under par
[G13] [G7+5] [G7] [C7] [Caug]
And you my little snooks, were ruining your looks
Verse
[F/A] [Abdim] [Gm7] C13sus4
Here we are keeping up the pace
[F/A] [Adim] [Gm7] [C9]
Letting each tomorrow slap us in the face
[Am7] [D7-9] [Gm7] [Bbm6]
Two sleepy people, by dawn's early light
[Am7] [D7-9] [G13] [C7] [F] [C7] [F]
And too much in love to say goodnight good night
