MARVIN GAYE - I HEARD IT THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE
(N. Whitfield; B. Strong)
Tamla Motown GO 25.880

I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
About your plans to make me blue
With some other guy that you knew before
Between the two of us guys I loved you more
It took me by surprise, I must say
When I found out yesterday, oh oh

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

You 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've told me yourself
That you loved somebody 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

They say believe half of what you see
And none of what you hear
I can't hide what I feel for you
If it's true please tell me dear
You could've said you were lettin' me go
For some other guy who loves you so 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
