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
