Some Other Time Lyrics by Betty Comden, Nancy Walker, Adolph Green, Cris Alexander

On the Town (Studio Cast Recording (1960))

1961

[CLAIRE]
Twenty four hours can go so fast
You look around, the day has passed
When you're in love, time is precious stuff
Even a lifetime isn't enough
Where has the time all gone to?
Haven't done half the things we want to
Oh well, we'll catch up some other time
This day was just a token
Too many words are still unspoken
Oh well, we'll catch up
Some other time
Just when the fun is starting
Comes the time for parting
But let's be glad for what we've had
And what's to come
There's so much more embracing
Still to be done, but time is racing
Oh well, we'll catch up
Some other time
[HILDY]
Didn't get half my wishes
Never have seen you dry the dishes
Oh well, we'll catch up
Some other time
Can't satisfy my craving
Never have watched you while you're shaving
Oh well, we'll catch up
Some other time
[CLAIRE, HILDY, CHIP & OZZIE]
Just when the fun's beginning
Comes the final inning...
[OZZIE]
Haven't had time to wake up
Seeing you there without your makeup
Oh well, we'll catch up
Some other time
[CLAIRE & HILDY]
Just when the fun is starting
Comes the time for parting
Let's be glad for what's to come, to come
[CHIP & OZZIE]
Comes the time for parting
But let's be glad for what we've had
And what's to come
[CLAIRE, HILDY, CHIP & OZZIE]
There's so much more embracing
Still to be done, but time is racing
Oh well, we'll catch up
Some other time
