doug anthony allstars – heard it through the grapevine lyrics
well, i bet you wonderin’ how i knew
’bout your plans to make me blue
with some other guy you knew before
out of the two of us guys, you know i loved you more
took me by surprise (took me by surprise)
i must say (i must say)
when i found out yesterday
dear god, i heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be mine
no, no, 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)
honey, honey, i know
(heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be my baby)
that you’re letting me go
now i know that a man ain’t supposed to cry
but these tears i can’t hold inside
losin’ you was my life you see
because you mean that much to me
you could have told me yourself (you could have told me yourself)
that you loved someone else
instead, i heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be mine
no, no i heard it though 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)
honey, honey, i know
(heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be my baby)
that you’re letting me go
you can’t hide what i’ve seen
and you can’t hide what i’ve heard
but i can’t stand this being confused
so if it’s true you’d better tell me, dear
do you plan to let me go
for the other guy you loved before?
dear god, i heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be mine
no, no i heard it though 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)
honey, honey, i know
(heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be my baby)
that you’re letting me go
(heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be my baby)
honey, honey, i know
(heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be my baby)
that you’re letting me go
(heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be my baby)
honey, honey, i know
(heard it through the grapevine
not much longer would you be my baby)
that you’re letting me go (yeah)
