Hmmm... That's good your TV has VGA input... What brand/model is it?

You can buy an audio cable that has on one end a mini-headphone connector (that will fit on the audio out of your MacBook) and whatever audio input connector your TV has on the other end.

Some have a 3.5mm jack (same as macbook sound output) input for VGA, some have RCA (red and white plug) input, will have to find out from the manual or internet.

Get a 3.5mm jack to whichever input you have on your TV, and bobs your mothers brother, you're sorted! (hopefully!)

Hope that helps!
