Soft Cell - 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

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
