As recorded by FRANK SINATRA and GLORIA DeHAVEN
for the film "Step Lively", Hollywood, 24th February 1944:


FRANK:
Some other time I could resist you
Yes, some other time, not now
There is no rhyme, now that I've kissed you
With all that is me I thee endow

Imagine me thinking you could never faze me
The tricks my imagination plays me
You smile and this heart of mine betrays me
You know it's so

Let's take a vow to love forever
Not some other time, but now

GLORIA:
There never was such a moon
Such a moment so opportune
You say some other time might do as well
My only answer, darling, is who can tell

FRANK:
Some other time I could resist you
Yes, some other time, not now
There is no rhyme, now that I've kissed you
With all that is me I thee endow

GLORIA:
Imagine me thinking you could never faze me
The tricks my imagination plays me
FRANK:
You smile and this heart of mine betrays me
You know
GLORIA: It's so

BOTH:
Let's take a vow to love forever
Not some other time, but now

(Musical Interlude)

FRANK:
I always knew that your kiss would be a gay thing
It's turned out to be a runaway thing
I just can't escape this night and day thing
You know that it's so

BOTH:
Let's take a vow to love forever
Not some other time, but now

As recorded by FRANK SINATRA
with Orchestra conducted by Axel Stordahl, 17th May 1944, New York:


Some other time I could resist you,
Yes, some other time, not now!
There is no rhyme now that I've kissed you,
With all that is me I thee endow.

Imagine me thinking you could never faze me,
The tricks my imagination plays me!
You smile and this heart of mine betrays me,
You know it's so!
Let's take a vow to love forever,
Not some other time, but now!

Imagine me thinking you could never faze me,
The tricks my imagination plays me!
You smile and this heart of mine betrays me,
You know it's so!
Let's take a vow to love forever,
Not some other time, but now!
