It took me by surprise, I must say
Not much longer would you be mine
Losin' you would end my life you see
No, no not from what you hear
And I'm just about to lose my mind
And I'm just about to lose my mind
You know that a man ain't supposed to cry
That you found someone else
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Do you plan to let me go
If it's true won't you tell me dear?
Between the two of us guys, you know I love you more
But these tears I can't hold inside
Ah, I heard it through the grapevine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
You could have told me yourself
'Cause you mean that much to me
For the other guy that you knew before?
Honey, honey yeah
Honey, honey yeah
And I'm just about to lose my mind
Instead I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Honey, honey yeah
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
With some other guy that you knew before?
I can't help bein' confused
Ooo, I heard it through the grapevine
And I'm just about to lose my mind
People say you hear from what you see
When I found out yesterday
