Intro:
, (x2)
Verse 1:
Some-times, I feel, I've got to,
Run a-way, I've got to,
Get a-way, from the pain,
That you drive into the heart of me.
Verse 2:
The love we share, seems to,
Go no-where, and I've,
Lost my light, for I,
Toss and turn; I can't sleep at night.
Bridge 1:
Once I ran to you, (I ran),
Now I'll run from you, (now I run).
This tainted love you've given;
I give you all a girl could give you,
()
Take my tears and that's not nearly all...
Chorus 1:
Oh...tainted love,
Tainted love.
Verse 3:
Now I know, I've got to,
Run a-way, I've got to,
Get a-way, you don't,
Really want any love from me.
Verse 4:
To make things right, you need,
Some-one to hold you tight, and you'll,
Think love is to play, but,
I'm sorry; I don't pray that way.
Bridge 2:
Once I ran to you, (I ran),
Now I'll run from you, (now I run).
This tainted love you've given;
I give you all a girl could give you,
()
Take my tears and that's not nearly all...
Chorus 2:
Oh...tainted love,
Tainted love.
Verse 5:
Don't touch me, please; I cannot,
Stand the way you tease.
I love you, though you hurt me so,
If I do not pack my things and go.
Chorus 3:
Oh...tainted love,
Oh...tainted love.
Coda:
Touch me baby, tainted love,
Touch me baby, tainted love.
