Ooh I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
'Bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy ya 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
CHORUS
Don't you 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 I heard it through the grapevine
How much longer would you be mine baby
Oh 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
REPEAT CHORUS
Yeah people say believe half of what you see
Son and none of what you hear
But I can't help but be confused
If it is true please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you loved before
REPEAT CHORUS
