Laura and Tommy were lovers
He wanted to give her everything
Flowers,
presents
And most of all, a wedding ring
They saw a sign for Stock Car Race
A thousand dollar price it read
He couldn't get Laura on the phone
So to her mother,
Tommy said Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura I may be late
I've something to do
That cannot wait
They drove his car to the racing
ground He was the youngest driver there
The crowd roared as they started the race
From the track they drove at a deadly pace
No one knows what happened that day How his car overturned in flames
But as they pulled him from the twisted rack
With his dying breath they heard him say
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry My love for her will never die
In the chapel Laura prays For Tommy who passed away
It was just for Laura who lived and died
Alone in the chapel she can hear him cry
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry My love for her will never die
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry My love for her will never die
