HELP with finding a recording
posted: March 11, 2010 - 10:39am

I need your help! I'm getting married in November and we LOVE the song Time After Time but especially the FIRST VERSE but I can't find Sinatra singing this song with the first verse included. Here are the words: What good are words I say to you? They can't convery to you what's in my heart. If you could hear instead The things I've left unsaid........The recordings I've heard just start with the chorus.
Does anyone know of a recording that Sinatra did where he actually sang the first verse and where I may be able to purchase? THANKS!

Frank recorded this twice, on 10/24/46 for Columbia and 11/25/57 for Capital but neither included the beginning verse. He sang it with Jimmy Durante in "It Happened in Brooklyn" but I played the movie and he didn't sing the verse there either. It might have been in a live performance. Sorry I can't help.

By sammy Cahn & Jule Styne: 1st verse: Time after time I'll tell myself that I'm,
So lucky to be loving you, So lucky to be the one one you run to see in the evening,
when the day is through.
2nd V: I only know what I know, the passing years may show, you've kept my love so young, so new
3rd V: And time after time, you'll hear me say that I'm,
so lucky to be loving you.
the best version in my book is mid-50's Capitol with Nelson Riddle found on This Is Sinatra:vol. 2,his voice is fuller & more vintage than Columbia movie soundtrack.
***If you go on Youtube type in Kathryn Grayson Time After Time (from "It Happened in Brooklyn"), I believe you will get the Intro. I believe she sang entire song with Intro in the movie. I heard it after she passed a few weeks ago on youtube.

2 recordings on Youtube that do have Cahn/Styne's Time After Time Intro are Rod Stewart's (from Great american songbook) & Claire Danes' (from a movie). Just giving you the Intro lyrics doesn't give you the melody, thus the reason for youtubes.
