Tainted Love / Where Did Our Love Go - Extended Version / Medley Songtext
von Soft Cell

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 (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

Tainted love (oh)
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

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

Tainted love (oh)
Tainted love
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

Tainted love (oh)
Tainted love (oh)
Tainted love (oh)
Tainted love (oh)


Touch me, baby, tainted love
Touch me, baby, tainted love
Tainted love (oh)
Tainted love (oh)
Tainted love
Tainted love

Baby, baby
Where did our love go?
Oh, don't you leave me
Don′t you leave me no more

I've got this burning, yearning, yearning
Feeling inside me
Ooh deep inside me
And it hurts so bad

You came into my life
So tenderly
With a burning love
That stings like a bee

And now that I′m surrendered
So helplessly
You know I believe
You wanna leave me

Oh baby, baby
Where did our love go?
Oh, don't you leave me
Don′t you leave me no more

Oh baby, baby
Where did our love go?
Oh don't you leave me
Don't you leave me no more

You came into my life
So tenderly
With a burning love
That stings like a bee

And now that I′m surrendered
So helplessly
You know I believe
That you wanna leave me

Oh, baby, baby
La, la, la, la, la
Oh, baby, baby
Don′t you leave me no more

I've got this burning, burning, yearning
Feeling inside me
Oh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad

Baby, baby, baby
Where did our love go?
Don′t you leave me
Don't you leave me no more

Now that I′m surrendered
So helplessly
You know I believe
You wanna leave me

Oh baby, baby
Where did our love go?
Where did our love go?
Where, where, where

Now that I'm surrendered
Oh, so helplessly
You know I believe
That you wanna leave me

Baby
Where did our love go?
Where did our love go?
Where, where, where

Baby, baby
Where did our love go?
Oh you wanna leave me
Don′t you wanna leave me?

I've got this burning, burning, yearning
Feeling inside me
Oh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad
Baby, baby
