He said to me
He wanted to be near to me
He said he never wanted to be out of my sight
But it's too late
To give this boy my love tonight
Please wait at the gate of heaven for me, Terry
He said to me
He wanted to be close by my side
We had a quarrel
I was untrue on the night he died
And it's too late
To tell this boy how great was
Please wait at the gate of heaven for me, Terry
He rode into the night
Accelerated his motorbike
I cried to him in fright
Don't do it, don't do it, don't do it
He said to me
You are the one I want to be with
He said to me
You are the one all my love I shall give
One day he'll know
How hard I prayed for him to live
Please wait at the gate of heaven for me, Terry
He rode into the night
Accelerated his motorbike
I cried to him in fright
Don't do it!
He said to me
He wanted to be near to me
He said he never wanted to be out of my sight
But it's too late
To give this boy my love tonight
Please wait at the gate of heaven for me, Terry
Wait at the gate of heaven for me
Terry
Terry, Terry, Terry
