(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
