0:02Laura and Tommy were lovers
0:05He wanted to give her everything
0:08Flowers presents
0:12But most of all a wedding ring
0:17He saw a sign for a stock car race
0:22A thousand dollar prize it read
0:26He couldn't get Laura on the phone
0:30So to her mother Tommy said
0:36Tell Laura I love her
0:40Tell Laura I need her
0:45Tell Laura I may be late
0:49I've something to do that cannot wait
0:57He drove his car to do racing grounds
1:03He was the youngest driver there
1:07And crowed roared as they started the race
1:11Around the track they drove at a deadly pace
1:17No one knows what happened that day
1:21How his car overturned in flames
1:26But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck
1:30With his dying breath they heard him say
1:35Tell Laura I love her
1:40Tell Laura I need her
1:45Tell Laura not to cry
1:49My love for her will never die
1:58Now in the chapel where Laura prays
2:04For her poor Tommy who passed away
2:07It was just for Laura he lived and died
2:12Alone in the chapel she can hear him cry
2:17Tell Laura I love her
2:22Tell Laura I need her
2:26Tell Laura not to cry
2:30My love for her will never die
2:40Tell Laura I love her
2:45Tell Laura I love her
2:49Tell Laura
Laura and Tommy were lovers He wanted to give her everything Flowers presents But most of all a wedding ring He saw a sign for a stock car race A thousand dollar prize 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 He drove his car to do racing grounds He was the youngest driver there And crowed roared as they started the race Around 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 wreck 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 Now in the chapel where Laura prays For her poor Tommy who passed away It was just for Laura he 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 love her Tell Laura
