Tainted Love

Sometimes I feel

I've got to run away

I've got to get away

From the pain you drive

Into the heart of me

The love we share

Seems to go nowhere

And I've lost my light

For I toss and turn

I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you (I ran)

Now I'll run from you

This tainted love you've given

I give you all a boy could give you

Take my tears

And that's not nearly all

Oh, tainted love

Oh, tainted love

Now I know

I've got to run away

I've got to get away

You don't really want

Any more from me

To make things right

You need someone to hold you tight

And you think love is to pray

But, I'm sorry, I don't pray that way

Once I ran to you (I ran)

Now I'll run from you

This tainted love you've given

I give you all a boy could give you

Take my tears

And that's not nearly all

Oh, tainted love

Oh, tainted love

Don't touch me, please

I cannot stand the way you tease

I love you, though you hurt me so

Now I'm going to pack my things and go

Tainted love, oh

Tainted love, oh

Tainted love, oh

Tainted love, oh

Touch me, baby

Tainted love (tainted love)

Touch me, baby

Tainted love (tainted love)

Tainted love, oh

Tainted love, oh

Tainted love

Tainted love
