But as they pulled him from the (7)______________ wreck
With his dying breath, (8)________ 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

For her poor Tommy, who passed away

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
