(rod stewart & ronnie lane)

If Im late, darling, dont hesitate
Just go without me and Ill see you there anyway
If I miss you at the station
I want you on that train

I dont want a sad sack
cause Ill be there come what may
Leave a message with the porter
Or leave it at the gate
Just let me know that youre aboard her
Just a word to know that youre 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 Im late darling, dont hesitate
Go on your own some
And Ill catch you there anyway
I might lose some time babe
But if I do
Ill make amends in an hour
When Im laying down beside you
