Based on Happy Times

Close the book before you hear another sound
 No one's talking to you there's no one else around
 When the summer comes we'll all go for a ride
 In the old car that we killed before it died
 Based on happy times not what I feel right now
 Where's the light in your eyes
 With the values that we learned but never shared
 I could tell you things that no one else would dare
 Based on happy times they're calling you from nowhere
 And if they're somewhere to be found
 I'll be there
 Where everybody comes around
 I walked ahead
 The book I read
 Just let me down
 I'm lost in pages
 Ripped from stages
 You had found
 You could go back to school with
 Everything you've burned
 Take a letter down
 This is everything you've learned
 Based on happy times
 They're calling you from nowhere
 And if they're somewhere to be found
 I'll be there where everybody comes around
 Don't you care
 Now please don't let me down
 I'll be there
