(Rod Stewart, Ronnie Lane, 1973)



If I'm late, darling, don't hesitate

Just go without me and I'll see you there anyway



If I miss you at the station 

I want you on that train

I don't want a sad sack

'Cause I'll be there come what may



Leave a message with the porter

Or leave it at the gate

Just let me know that you're aboard her

Just a word to know that you're safe



I walk from Maryland to Silvertown

I hoped to catch you in the street

I must have missed you by a moment dear

I tried the place we alway meet



So if I'm late darling, don't hesitate, no no

Go on your ownsome and I'll catch you there anyway



I might lose sometime babe

But if I do I'll make amends in an hour

When I'm laying down beside you
