Put Your Dreams Away (For Another Day)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Put Your Dreams Away (For Another Day) was the theme song of Frank Sinatra. The song was written in 1945 by Ruth Lowe, Paul Mann, and Stephen Weiss. Lowe had also written Sinatra's first hit (as a vocalist with the Tommy Dorsey orchestra), I'll Never Smile Again. Sinatra first recorded the song for Columbia Records on May 1, 1945 and used it in that period as the theme song of his radio series. He recorded it for Capitol Records on December 11, 1957 and again for Reprise Records on April 30, 1963, for the album Sinatra's Sinatra, a set of re-recordings of songs he originally recorded for Columbia and Capitol. For the 1965 Reprise album A Man and His Music, the introduction of the 1963 recording was overdubbed with narration by Sinatra praising his theme song for having come a long way with him, "all the way from nowhere to somewhere."
