The story concerns three American sailors on a 24-hour shore leave in New York City during wartime 1944. Each of the three sailors becomes enamoured of a particular woman — and of the city itself.On the Town was first produced on Broadway in 1944 and was made into a film in 1949 - although the film replaced all but three of the original Broadway songs with Hollywood-written substitutes. The show has enjoyed a number of major revivals. The musical integrates dance into its storytelling: Robbins made a number of ballets and extended dance sequences for the show, including the Imaginary Coney Island ballet.

Lyrics: Where has the time all gone to ? Havent done half the things we want to.. Oh well, well catch up some other time.. This day was just a token, too many words are still unspoken.. Oh well, well catch up some other time.. Just when the fun is starting, comes the time for parting, lets just be glad for what weve had and whats to come. Theres so much more embracing, still to be done but time is racing.. Oh well, well catch up some other time.. Just when the fun is starting, comes the time for parting, but lets be glad for what weve had and whats to come.. theres so much more embracing, still to be done but time is racing.. Oh well, well catch up some other time.. Oh well, some other time, oh well...
