Tell Laura I Love Her (Album Version)

Tell Laura I Love Her (Album Version) - Albert West

Laura and Tommy were lovers

He wanted to give her everything:

Flowers

Presents and 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 but cannot wait

He drove his car to the racing grounds

He was the youngest driver there;

The crowd 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 will never die

Now in the chapel 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 will never die

Tell Laura I love her

Tell Laura I need her

Tell Laura I love her

Tell Laura I love her

Tell Laura I need her
