奧斯卡電影《難兄難弟》的插曲,經典的悲劇式搖滾。Ray Peterson的精彩演繹讓人落淚。歌曲旋律非常淒涼,當男人臨死前說:Tell Laura I love her, tell Laura I need her,Tell Laura not to cry,My love for her will never die,這種使人感動得撕心裂肺的愛情,不知道現代社會還會不會發生。
Laura and Tommy were lovers
He wanted to give her everything
Flowers, presents and most of all, a wedding ring
He saw a sign for a stock car race
A thousand dollar prize it read
He couldnˇt 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
Iˇve something to do, that cannot wait
He drove his car to the racing grounds
He was the youngest driver there
The crowed roared as they started the race
Round the track 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
And in the chapel where Laura prays
For 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........
