Tainted Love (1976 Recording) - Gloria Jones

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 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)

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 pray

Well I'm sorry I don't pray 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

Tainted love

Don't touch me please

I cannot stand the way you (Tease)

I know you will hurt me so

If I do not pack my things and go

Tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love

Talk about the tainted love

Talk about the tainted love

Talk about the tainted love

Talk about the tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love

Tainted love
