Ooh I bet you're wond'rin' how I knew
'Bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys you know I love you more
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Dontcha know that I
Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey yeah
( Heard it through the grapevine )
( Not much longer would you be my baby ooh ooh ooh ooh )
I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losin' you would end my life you see
'Cause you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself
That you loved someone else
Instead I
Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey yeah
( Heard it through the grapevine )
( Not much longer would you be my baby ooh ooh ooh ooh )
People say believe half of what you see
Son and none of what you hear
But I can't help bein' confused
If it's true please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you loved before
Dontcha know I
Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Baby I heard it through the grapevine
Ooh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey honey yeah
( Heard it through the grapevine )
( Not much longer would you be my baby yeah yeah yeah yeah )
Honey honey I know
That you're lettin' me go
Said I heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
