Oo, Bet you're wond'ring how I knew 'bout your plans to make me blue With some other guy that 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. Oo, [CHORUS:] I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine. Oo, I heard it through the grapevine, and I'm just about to lose my mind. Honey, honey yeah. You know that 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 found someone else. Instead, [CHORUS] People say you "Hear from what you see, na na not from what you hear." I can't help bein' confused; if it's true, won't you tell me dear? Do you plan to let me go for the other guy that you knew before? Oo, [CHORUS] [CHORUS]
