I Heard It Through the Grapevine lyrics

[Intro]
Oh oh

[Verse 1]
I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
'Bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys
You know I loved you more
Took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
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
When I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah

[Chorus]
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine baby
Ooh

[Verse 2]
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've told me yourself
That you loved 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 to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah
[Chorus]
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine, baby
Oooh ooh ooh

[Verse 3]
People say believe half of what you see
Son and none of what you hear
I can't help but be confused
If it's true please tell me dear
Do you plan to let me go
For the other guy you loved before?

[Chorus]
Don't you know I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine, oh ohh
I heard it through the grapevine
I am just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine, baby

[Outro]
Oh ohh
I heard it through the grapevine
Baby
Honey, honey
I know
That you let me go
Ohh
I heard
You know I heard
Ohh
I heard
You know I heard it through the grapevine
Do you know I heard it?
How much longer?
How much longer would you be mine, baby?
Ohh
I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
Baby
Don't you know I heard it...
