"Time After Time" is a romantic jazz standard with lyrics written by Sammy Cahn and music by Jule Styne in 1946.

The first recording was on November 19, 1946 for Musicraft[1] by Sarah Vaughan with the Teddy Wilson Quartet: Wilson on piano, Charlie Ventura on tenor saxophone, Remo Palmieri on guitar, and Billy Taylor on double bass.

The song was written for Frank Sinatra to introduce in the 1947 film It Happened in Brooklyn. The pianist providing the offsreen accompaniment was André Previn to an arrangement of Axel Stordahl. Later in the film the song was reprised in full by Kathryn Grayson.

Sinatra recorded it again in 1957 with the Nelson Riddle Orchestra.[2] After it emerged as a jazz standard thanks to saxophonists like Getz and Coltrane, 1959 was a banner year for its popularity being covered by many pop and jazz vocalists.[3]

A performance of this song by Margaret Whiting was also heard on the soundtrack to Nora Ephron’s 2009 film Julie & Julia.
