Tainted Love

Sometimes I feel I've got to run away
I've got to get away from the pain you're driving to the heart of me
The love we share seems to go nowhere
But I lost my right for I toss and turn, I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you
Now I'll run from you
Tainted love you've given
Gave you all a boy could give you
Now take, not give, and that's not nearly all

Now I know I've got to run away
I've got to get away
You really don't want any more from me
To make things right you need someone to hold you tight
And to think love is to pray
But I'm sorry but I don't pray that way

Once I ran to you
Now I'll run from you
Tainted love you've given
Gave you all a boy could give you
Now take, not give, and that's not nearly all
Not nearly all

Sometimes I feel I've got to run away
I've got to get away from the pain
You're driving to the very heart of me
The love we share seems to go nowhere
And I lost my faith for I toss and turn, I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you
Now I'll run from you
Tainted love you've given
Gave you all a boy could give you
Now take, not give, and that's not nearly all

Tainted love, tainted love
Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I loved you though you hurt me so
Now it's time to take my things and go
Tainted love, tainted love
Tainted love (Tainted love)
Tainted love (Tainted love)
