"Le Temp, Le Temp" or "This Time, This Time". Ole Liza use to sing it and it's a very uptempo song. Then there's "Time Heals Everything from Mack & Mabel which might be too slow for you as a closing number but it is a wonderful song.

we are going to go to Lincoln Center Library tomorrow. The Cole Porter song is a bit too much like other songs that are already in the show. Oh the torture!!

That's the theme from "Ryan's Daughter". "It was a good time, it was the best time, it was a party just to be near you..." There's the song that Julie Andrews/Leslie Bricusse wrote for her variety show, called Time Is My Friend. My parents loved that show, and used to make sound recordings off the television. I've heard that song, many times growing up -
Time is my friend
For every time we meet
The time we spend is tender and sweet
Sweet songs to sing and pretty words to rhyme
And memories that cling thanks to time
Quite paths to walk and long talks to talk
And tall hills to climb and mountains of time
Then time now to go for everything must end
I'll see you soon I know, knowing time is my friend
Time is my friend
For every time we meet
The time we spend is tender and sweet
Sweet songs to sing and pretty words to rhyme
And memories that cling thanks to time
Quite paths to walk and long talks to talk
And tall hills to climb and mountains of time
Then time now to go for everything must end
I'll see you soon I know, knowing time is my friend
ConvinceMe2 is dead. Long live BrendanStryker!

Shermanslave - send me a PM. There's a song called TIME from a new musical, WAS. The song is absolutely gorgeous and I have a copy and know where you can get a copy, but I don't want to post it here.
The lyrics:
"There's a film that plays inside my head
Full of things we did and words we said.
We were both so young, didn't have a dime.
All we had was plenty of time.
But the world was sweet and life was fine.
And the nights were warm as apple wine.
And we shared a bed that was made for two
Where at night I'd tell all my dreams to you.
And you promised they would come true in time.
I would depend on your warming touch.
There was no end to your willing heart.
And what I asked you would always do
Even when I knew what I asked might drive us apart in time.
Now that leaves me here, so far away.
Thinkin' how the two of us went astray.
Still I close my eyes and the movie plays
That remembers us in our prime.
And I get to view me and you
In a time when all that we had
Was time.

Stop, Time is from BIG The Musical. Not a good closer for a revue.
I admit I haven't read this entire thread. I did, however, have an idea. How about Time and Music (or the song earlier in the show, Heart and Music) from A New Brain?

If you want something in the melancholy style of "The Party's Over" try the song "Some Other Time" from ON THE TOWN (M: Bernstein, l: Comden & Green):
"Where has the time all gone to
Haven't done half the things we want to
Oh well..we'll catch up, some other time..."
A great closer.

A great closer.
Cast albums are NOT "soundtracks."
Live theatre does not use a "soundtrack." If it did, it wouldn't be live theatre!
I host a weekly one-hour radio program featuring cast album selections as well as songs by cabaret, jazz and theatre artists. The program, FRONT ROW CENTRE is heard Sundays 9 to 10 am and also Saturdays from 8 to 9 am (eastern times) on www.proudfm.com

Billy Porter wrote and often performs a song called "Time". I think you can find it on his website BillyPorter.com.

definitely "our time". i was in a revue and that was our closing number. it works wonderfully.
you could also do "time and music" into "i feel so much spring" because, well let's face it, they're gorgeous. maybe too plot oriented.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

How about Rodgers & Hart's
"I Didn't Know What Time It Was"
"Once I was young--
Yesterday, perhaps--
Danced with Jim and Paul
And kissed some other chaps.
Once I was young,
But never was naive.
I thought I had a trick or two
Up my imaginary sleeve.
And now I know I was naive.
I didn't know what time it was,
Then I met you.
Oh, what a lovely time it was,
How sublime it was, too!
I didn't know what day it was,
You held my hand.
Warm like the month of May it was,
And I'll say it was grand.
Grand to be alive, to be young,
To be mad, to be yours alone!
Grand to see your face, feel your touch,
Hear your voice say I'm all your own..."
~~Lorenz Hart
