TELL TOMMY I MISS HIM
(Ben Raleigh / Jeff Barry)

Marilyn Michaels - 1960

Tommy my sweetheart is gone now
He was everything to me
So little star high above
If you see Tommy, tell him of my love

Tell Tommy I love him
Tell Tommy I miss him
Tell him though I may cry
My love for him will never die

He drove his car in that stockcar race
To win money so we could wed
He wanted so much to make me his wife
Now our love lives on, though he lost his life

I'm so lonely without him near
Oh, how I miss his warm embrace
I'll love no other, I want him to know
Oh, little star please tell him so

Tell Tommy I love him
Tell Tommy I miss him
Tell him though I may cry
My love for him will never die

Although he wanted to give me the world
Why did he do such a reckless thing
Little star, he should have realized
I was richer than a queen when he looked into my eyes

Tell Tommy I love him
Tell Tommy I miss him
Tell him though I may cry
My love for him will never die

Tell Tommy I miss him
Tell Tommy I miss him
Tell Tommy ..... FADE
