Do not love, the world is a cruel cage,
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage,
To meet another's gaze is a harmful gauge.
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage,
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage.

For God's own sake, restrain your eyes,
For God's own sake, restrain your eyes,
A glance askew, a dangerous guise.
A dangerous guise, a dangerous guise,
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage,
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage.

Without you, these nights never cease,
Without you, these nights never cease,
To find no excuse, a painful release.
A painful release, a painful release,
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage,
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage.

Oh, for God's sake, come to my chest,
Oh, for God's sake, come to my chest,
To meet eyes and set hearts to rest is a test.
To meet eyes and set hearts to rest is a test,
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage,
To meet another's gaze is a harmful gauge.
Do not love, the world is a cruel cage,
The world's a cage, the world's a cage.
