[Verse 1:]
Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew
'bout you're plans to make me blue
With some other girl that you knew before.
Between the two of us girls
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.
[Verse 2:]
I know that a girl 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…
[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.
[Verse 3:]
People say believe half of what you see,
And none of what you hear.
I can't help bein' confused
If it's true please tell me dear?
Do you plan to let me go
For the other girl you loved before?
Don't you know…
[Chorus:]
I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine.
Oh I heard it through the grapevine,
Yeah and I'm just about to lose my mind.
Honey, honey yeah.
