Ray Peterson - Tell Laura I Love Her

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 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 can not

 wait



蘿拉和湯米是一對戀人

他希望能給她一切

鮮花、禮物，最重要的是：

一只結婚鑽戒

他看到一張賽車告示

上面說有一千元獎金

在電話中他無法聯絡到蘿拉

於是請她母親轉告，湯米說：

告訴蘿拉我愛她

告訴蘿拉我需要她

告訴蘿拉，我可能會遲到

我有事要做，沒辦法等





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 they drove at a deadly pace

No one knows what happened that day

How his car over-turned 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



他把車子開到賽車場

他是最年輕的一位車手

比賽一開始，觀眾大喊大叫

他們以致命的速度繞著圈子

沒有人知道那天發生了什麼事

他的車在火焰中翻了過去

當人們將他從扭曲的車身中拉出來

在奄奄一息中，聽到他說：

告訴蘿拉我愛她

告訴蘿拉我需要她

告訴蘿拉不要哭

我對她的愛永遠不死





Now in the chapel where Laura 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……



在教堂裡

蘿拉為死去的湯米禱告

對蘿拉來說，他雖死猶生

獨自在教堂裡，她聽得見他在哭喊：

告訴蘿拉我愛她……
