Moon as My Witness Lyrics
[Intro]
There's something you said
A whirlwind, a voice
"Together," you said
But I have no choice
Oh please
Stay a while
God, I love your smile
[Verse 1]
I never felt alone
But here feels like hell
When I am on my own
And you're all I feel
Oh please
Stay a while
God, I love your smile
[Verse 2]
A rat in a cage
A stone in a stream
I float far away
I live in a dream
Oh please
Stay a while
God, I love your smile
There's something you said
A whirlwind, a voice
"Together," you said
But I have no choice
Oh please
Stay a while
God, I love your smile
[Verse 1]
I never felt alone
But here feels like hell
When I am on my own
And you're all I feel
Oh please
Stay a while
God, I love your smile
[Verse 2]
A rat in a cage
A stone in a stream
I float far away
I live in a dream
Oh please
Stay a while
God, I love your smile
[Outro]
And how about that thing
You do when you're awake
A laugh with a sting
A bite from a snake
Oh please
Stay a while
God, I love your smile
And how about that thing
You do when you're awake
A laugh with a sting
A bite from a snake
Oh please
Stay a while
God, I love your smile

Genius Annotation
In an audio commentary, Tom DeLonge wrote the song around a line from the Love film in which one of the characters looks at a picture of his wife/girlfriend and says “God, I love your smile”.
PROPOSED SUGGESTION: On August 8, 2017 via Instagram, DeLonge revealed that the song title was a quote from the late friend, and long-time engineer for AvA, Jeff “Critter” Newell. He would drink and dance to AvA songs in the studio parking lot till 4 AM. The actual quote from Toms late friend was,
I danced till the morning hours with only the moon as my witness."
