Tell Laura I Love Her Lyrics

(Ben Raleigh - Jeff Barry)
Ray Peterson

Laura and Tommy were lovers he wanted to give here everything
Flowers presents and most of all a wedding ring
He saw a sign for a stockcar 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.

He drove his car to the racing ground
He was the youngest driver there
The crowd roared as they started to race
From the truck they drove at a deadly pace.

No one knows what happened that day
How his car overturned in flamesSkeeter Davis - Tell Laura I Love Her - http://motolyrics.com/skeeter-davis/tell-laura-i-love-her-lyrics.html
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 Loura 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 love her...
