Tainted Love Lyrics By Soft Cell

    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
    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
    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 gonna pack my things and go
    tainted love oh tainted love oh
    tainted love oh tainted love oh
    touch me baby tainted love
    touch me baby tainted love
    tainted love oh
    tainted love oh
    tainted love
