"Cigarettes and Valentines" Lyrics:
I don't wanna go back home
I don't wanna kiss goodnight
Let us paralyze this moment til it dies
To the end of the earth
Under the Valley of the Stars
There's a car crashing deep inside my heart
Take a ride through the avenues
Across the Great Divide
There's a siren screaming "I'm alive"
It cries
Red alert is the color
Of your paper valentines
Intertwined on this moment passing by
Take a ride through the avenues
Across the Great Divide
( From: www.elyrics.net... )
There's a siren screaming "I'm alive"
It cries
Red alert is the color
Of your paper valentines
Intertwined on this moment passing by
So come away
With me tonight
With cigarettes and valentines
Cigarettes and valentines
So come away
With me tonight
With cigarettes and valentines
So come away
With me tonight
With cigarettes and valentines
Cigarettes and valentines
#greenday #cigarettesandvalentines

Green Day revealed that they did get the Tracks of their planned Album "Cigarettes And Valentines" back. But don't really have any plans to release them. They are just kept in the "Green Day Vault" so to speak. Billie Joe has revealed though that the song on their Album "Revolution Radio" entitled YoungBlood was originally going to be part of "Cigarettes And Valentines", and eventually put it on RevRad with a facelift, and changed lyrics.

[@lindseybetty5038]

Nagisa Hazuki He said it was an old song, but never claimed it was from Cigarettes and Valentines. That said - Amy, Walk Away, and Too Much Too Soon are all supposed to have been from Cigarettes and Valentines. They are all available on KZbin.

Look guys, I don't think that the tapes were stolen. I think that they weren't satisfied with it and started all over again. But the story is funny.
