Earl Van Dyke - I Heard It Through the Grapevine lyrics

[Verse 1] I bet you're wondering 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 love you more It took me by surprise, I must say When I found out yesterday Don't you know that [Chorus] I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine Oh, I heard it through the grapevine Oh, and I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey, yeah (heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby) [Verse 2] 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 Because you mean that much to me You could have told me yourself That you love someone else Instead [Chorus] 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 (heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby) [Verse 3] People say "believe half of what you see Son and none of what 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 the other guy you loved before? Don't you know [Chorus] I heard it through the grapevine Not much longer would you be mine, baby I heard it through the grapevine I'm just about to lose my mind Honey, honey, yeah (heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby) [Outro] Honey, Honey, I know (heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby) That you're letting me go (yeah, yeah, yeah) Said I heard it through the grapevine (heard it through the grapevine not much longer would you be my baby) Oh, heard it thought the grapevine (yeah, yeah, yeah)
