I bet you're wondering how I knew What you're plans to make me blue With some other guy you knew before Between the two of us caught, you know I love you more It took me by surprise I must say when I found out yesterday Don't you know, 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 yea 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 love 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 lose my mind People say believe half of what you see So believe none of what you hear Well 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 left me for Don't you know 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, yea Honey honey, yea Honey honey, love That you let me go Said, "I heard it through the grapevine" Heard it, heard it through the grapevine Said, "I heard it through the grapevine" Honey honey, love So let me go
