Tainted Love Lyrics - American Idol

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'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 it any more from me - 

To make things right you need someone to hold you tight 

And you'll think love is to pray but I'm sorry I don't pray that that way 

Once I ran to you 

now I'll run from you 

. . . 

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 - tainted love
