Laura and Tommy were lovers
he wanted to give her everything flowers, presents and most of all a weddingring
he saw a sign for a stockcar race a thousand dollar price it red 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 maybe late
I've got 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 the race round the track he drove at a deadly place 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 heared him say

Tell Laura I love her
tell Laura I need her
Tell Laura I maybe late
my love for her will never die

Now in the chapel Laura prays for het 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 I maybe late
my love for her will never die
