Bet you're wondering how i knew.
Ah, what you're plans to make me blue.
With some other guy you knew before.
Between the two of us, you know i love you more.

It took me by surprise i must say, when i found out yesterday.
Oh, i heard it through the grapevine. (heard it through the grapevine)
Not much longer would you be mine. (not much longer would you be mine)
Oh, i heard it through the grapevine. (heard it through the grapevine)
And i'm just about to lose my mind.

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,
Oh, that you love someone else.
Instead i heard it through the grapevine. (heard it through the grapevine)
Not much longer would you be mine. (not much longer would you be mine)
Oh, i heard it through the grapevine. (heard it through the grapevine)
Oh, and i am, and i am just about lose my mind.

People say believe half of what you see.
Oh, and none of what you hear.
Whoa, i jus' 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 that i heard it through the grapevine. (heard it through the grapevine)
