Grapevyne Songtext

von Brownstone

[Intro]
Ooohh
(I) Ooohh
Ooh ooohh
Mm, mmm
Ooohh
I heard (I heard)
It through
Grapevine
Boy I did, I

1 - I heard it through the grapevine
That you ain't feeling too fine
And I hope that you feel much better
Yes, I do
Well it, all went on the day I left
'Til that day, you had the very best
Hope that you feel much better
Yes, I do

You looked into my eyes
You said to me that night
That you would never cheat on me
Or break my heart
Inside, I never knew
Your love was so untrue
I thought that I was your only
Boy, was I wrong, so wrong

2 - Never do something that'll catch up to ya
(You did me wrong & told me lies)
Never do something that you'll live to regret
(You hurt me so bad, babe)
Deep in my heart, I feel sorry for ya
(You had to lose a damn good thing)
Loving me could have been good
(Losing my love was a shame, baby)

(Repeat 1)

We choose to play love games
We lose, we face the pain
Those lonely nights and that heartache
That empty space
I shared with you my dreams
Those precious tender things
Everybody plays a fool
I guess I played my part for you

(Repeat 2)
(Repeat 1)

Oh boy you had my faith, you had my trust, you had my love
But now I have to take it back, it didn't work for us
And all I really needed was your lovin'
Yes, all I really needed was your lovin'
I was your lady and there's nothing that I would not do
Now here's a 'Dear John letter' that I've written just for you
And all I really needed was your lovin'
Yes, all I really needed was your lovin'

(Repeat 2)
(Repeat 1 to fade)
