Tell Laura I Love Her - Joe Meek

Tommy and Laura 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 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 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

Around the truck 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 that he lived and died alone in the chapel she can hear

him cry

Tell Laura I love her…

My love for her will never die
