[Intro] Ah, ah [Verse 1] Well, 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 [Chorus] Once 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 Oh, tainted love Tainted love [Verse 2] 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's to pray But I'm sorry, I don't pray that way [Chorus] Once 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 Oh, tainted love Tainted love Tainted love Tainted love [Bridge] 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, and go, and go
