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 life
For I toss and turn
I can't sleep at night
Once I ran to you
Now I run from you
This tainted love you've given
I gave you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love
Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away, I've got to
Get away, 'cause 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
Now I run from you
This tainted love you've given
I gave you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love
Tainted love
Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
Babe I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm gonna pack my things and go
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
Touch me baby
Tainted love
Touch me baby
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
Baby, baby, baby
Where did our love go
Oh, don't you leave me
Don't you leave me no more
Oh, tell me now,
Baby, baby, baby
Where did our love go
Don't you leave me
Don't you leave me no more
