Well, 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 light For I toss and turn, I can't sleep at night
* Once I ran to you 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
Tainted love Tainted love
Now I know I've got to Run away, I've got to Get away
You don't really want any more 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, and go, and go
