Laura and Tommy were lovers.
He wanted to give her everything : Flowers, presents, and most of all, a weddind ring.
He saw a sign for a stock car race.
A thousand dollars' prize is read.
He couldn't get Laura on the phone,
So to her mother and Tommy said :
"Tell Laura I love her.
Tell Laura I need her.
Tell Laura I may be late,
I've something to do that can not wait"
He drove his car to the racing grounds.
He was the youngest driver there.
The crowd roaded as they started the race,
Round the track they drove at a deadly speed.
No one knows what happened that day.
How his car overturned in flames.
But as the pulled him from the twisted wreck with his dying preath, the heard him said:
(*) "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 Chapel, you can hear him cry.
