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 (Something to do)
That cannot wait (Cannot wait)
He drove his car
To the racing grounds
He was the youngest
Driver there
The crowed roared
As they started the race
'Round 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 (My love for her)
Will never die (Never die)
Now in the chapel
Where Laura prays
For her 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 (My love for her)
Will never die (Never die)
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I love her
Tell Laura I love her
