Is a necessary?

Is "a" necessary in the expression "There's always a next time." or, in this case you could say without it like "There's always next time."?

Thank you.

Many people probably wouldn't notice the absence of the article but as the adjectival character of next is very clear, I'd prefer a before next. CB
