"Tainted Love" lyrics

"Tainted Love"
(originally by Gloria Jones)
(from "My Lady Jane" soundtrack)


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 our love's not right
For I toss and turn, I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I run from you (Now I run)
The tainted love you're giving
I gave you all a girl can give you
Take, not give
And that's not nearly all

Tainted love (Oh-oh-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 love from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And who think love is to play
Well, I'm sorry, I don't play that way

Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I run from you (Now I run)
The tainted love you're giving
I gave you all a girl can give you
Take, not give
And that's not nearly all

Tainted love (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Tainted love

Don't touch me, please (Please)
I cannot stand the way you (Tease)
I love you so
If I do not pack my things and go (Oh-oh-oh)

Tainted love (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Tainted love (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Tainted love, oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh)
Tainted love (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Talkin' 'bout the tainted love (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Talkin' 'bout the tainted love (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Talkin' 'bout the tainted love
