I Heard It Through the Grapevine Lyrics

I bet you're wondering how I knew
About you're 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

Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

I heard it through the grapevine
How much longer would you be my baby

I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life, you see
Because you mean that much to me
You could have told me yourself
That you love someone else

Instead I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

I heard it through the grapevine
How much longer would you be my baby
I heard it through the grapevine
How much longer would you be my baby

Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

I heard it through the grapevine
How much longer would you be my baby
I heard it through the grapevine
How much longer would you be my baby

People say believe half of what you see
Son, and none of what you hear
I can't help being confused
If it's true please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you loved before

Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh I'm just about to lose my mind
Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
Oh oh I heard it through the grapevine
