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
A love we shared seems to go nowhere
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 tainted love oh
Now I know i've got to run away
I've got to get away
You don't really want anymore 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 cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm gonna pack my things and go
