Tainted Love / Where Did Our Love Go (extended) 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 (woah-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 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 (woah-oh-oh-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 (woah-oh-oh-oh)
Tainted love (woah-oh-oh-oh)
Tainted love (woah-oh-oh-oh)
Tainted love (woah-oh-oh-oh)

Touch me, baby, tainted love
Touch me, baby, tainted love


Tainted love (woah-oh-oh-oh)
Tainted love (woah-oh-oh-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 burnin′, yearnin', yearnin′ feelin' 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 surrounded, 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 surrender, so helplessly
You know I believe, that you wanna leave me

Oh, baby, baby, la-la-la-la
Oh, baby, baby don't you leave me more
I′ve got this burnin', burnin′, yearnin' feelin' inside me

Ooh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad

Baby, baby, baby where did our love go
Oh, don′t you leave me
Don′t you leave me no more
And now that I surrender, 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 I surrender

Lord so help us please
You know I believe, that you wanna leave me here
Baby where did our love go, where did our love
Where, where, where
Baby, baby where our love go

Oh, wanna leave me, don't you leave me
I′ve got this burnin', burnin′, yearnin' feelin′ inside me
Ooh, deep inside me and its hurt so bad
Baby, baby
