In a week or two
I would've been ready
I would have known what to say
But I missed my chance
And 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
You put off today
What you can do tomorrow
Sometimes you don't do the 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 tellin' 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
