Tainted Love Lyrics – Soft Cell

Tainted Love Text

---

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
Now I 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, oh oh oh
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

Don't touch me please
I can not stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Tainted love, oh oh oh (4x)
Touch me baby, tainted love (2x)
Tainted love, oh oh oh (2x)
Tainted love
