In a week or two I would have been ready I would have known what to say But I missed my chance When the words "I love you" Came just a little too late In a week or two I was gonna bring you diamonds In a week or two A long, long string of pearls and We would've run down to the river at night Sailed away, just me and you In a week or two A little more time Was all I needed But somehow Fall became Spring But put off today What you can do tomorrow Sometimes you don't do a thing In a week or two I was gonna bring you diamonds In a week or two A long, long string of pearls and We would've run down to the river at night Sailed away, just me and you In a week or two These words in my heart never had a chance to be heard But I'm telling you now for all that it's worth In a week or two I was gonna bring you diamonds In a week or two A long, long string of pearls and We would've run down to the river at night Sailed away, just me and you In a week or two
