Sometimes I feel
I've got to run away
I've got to get away
From the pain you drive
Into the heart of meThe love that we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn
I can't sleep at nightOnce I ran to you
And 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
Tainted love
Tainted loveNow I know
I've got to run away
I've got to get away
You don't really want
Any more from meTo 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 wayOnce I ran to you
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
Tainted love
Tainted loveDon't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now it's time you pack your things and goTainted love
Tainted loveTouch me, baby, tainted love
Don't touch me with your tainted love
Touch me, baby, tainted love
Don't touch me with your tainted loveThe tainted love
The tainted love
The tainted love
The tainted loveThe tainted love
The tainted love
The tainted love
The tainted love
