Song Notes

A live performance captured in 2010 during the 21st Century Breakdown tour in Phoenix, AZ, stands as the sole released version of the title track from Green Day's scrapped album, Cigarettes & Valentines. This recording was featured as the only previously unreleased song on the live album Awesome As Fuck, which debuted the following year.

Lyrics

Well, I don't wanna go back home 
And 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
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

Oh, come away with me tonight
With cigarettes and valentines
Cigarettes and valentines
