I Heard It Through The Grapevine
Marvin Gaye


I bet you're wondering how I knew
About your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys, you know I love you more

It took me by surprise (took me by surprise)
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
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah

I know a man ain't supposed to cry
But these tears I can't hold inside
Losing you would end my life, you see
'Cause you mean that much to me

You could have 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 to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah

People say, believe half of what you see
Son, and none of you hear
But I can't help being confused
If it's true, please tell me dear

Do you plan to let me go
For that other guy you loved before
Don't you know I heard it through the grapevine?
Not much longer would you be mine
Baby, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah

Honey, honey, I know
That you're letting me go
Said, I heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
