Faces: "If I'm On the Late Side" Lyrics

(Rod Stewart & Ronnie Lane) 

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 

Go on your own some 

And I'll catch you there anyway

I might lose some time babe

But if I do 

I'll make amends in an hour

When I'm laying down beside you
