Tainted love

You think love is to pray

But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

Once I ran to you

Now I'll run from you

This tainted love you've given.

Sometimes I feel I've got to

Run away I've got to

Get away

From the pain that 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 (I ran),

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.
