Tell Laura I Love Her
Eternal Love's Last Race
Lyrics
Laura and Tommy were lovers
Laura and Tommy were in a romantic relationship.
He wanted to give her everything
Tommy wanted to provide Laura with everything, including gifts and a wedding ring.
Flowers, presents and most of all a wedding ring
Expressing Tommy's desire to marry Laura.
He saw a sign for a stock car race
Tommy noticed a sign about a stock car race with a significant cash prize.
A thousand dollar prize it read
The sign advertised a thousand-dollar prize for the stock car race.
He couldn't get Laura on the phone
Tommy couldn't reach Laura by phone.
So to her mother Tommy said
Tommy told Laura's mother about his intentions.
Tell Laura I love her, tell Laura I need her
Tommy's message to Laura: "Tell Laura I love her, tell Laura I need her."
Tell Laura I may be late
Tommy may be late due to something urgent.
I've something to do that cannot wait
Tommy has a task that cannot wait.
He drove his car to the racing ground
Tommy went to the racing ground in his car.
He was the youngest driver there
Tommy was the youngest driver at the race.
The crowd roared as they started the race
The race started with excitement from the crowd.
Round the track they drove at a deadly pace
The race was fast and dangerous.
No one knows what happened that day
No one knows the details of what happened that day.
How his car overturned in flames
Tommy's car overturned in flames during the race.
But as they pulled him from the twisted wreck
As they rescued him from the wreck, he had a dying message.
With his dying breath, they heard him say
With his last breath, Tommy expressed his love for Laura.
Tell Laura I love her, tell Laura I need her
Repetition of Tommy's message to Laura.
Tell Laura not to cry
Telling Laura not to cry.
My love for her will never die
Assuring Laura that his love for her will endure.
Now in the chapel where Laura prays
Now in the chapel where Laura prays.
For her Tommy who passed away
Laura prays for Tommy who has passed away.
It was just for Laura he lived and died
Tommy lived and died solely for Laura.
Alone in the chapel she can hear him cry
Alone in the chapel, Laura hears Tommy's cries.
Tell Laura I love her, tell Laura I need her
Reiteration of Tommy's message to Laura.
Tell Laura not to cry
Telling Laura not to cry once again.
My love for her will never die
Reaffirming that Tommy's love for Laura will never die.
Tell Laura I love her
Repeating the plea to tell Laura that he loves her.
Tell Laura I need her
Reiterating the message to tell Laura that he needs her.
