I Heard It Through The Grapevine - Single Version

Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
'Bout your plans to make me blue
With some other guy you knew before
Between the two of us guys you know I love you more

It took me by surprise, I must say
When I found out yesterday
Don't you know that
I heard it through the grapevine?
Not much longer, would you be mine?
Oh, I heard it through the grapevine
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, well

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer
Would you be my baby?
Ooh-ooh-ooh

I 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 have told me yourself
That you love someone 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, well

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer
Would you be my baby?
Ooh-ooh-ooh

People say, "Believe half of what you see"
"Son, and none of what you hear"
But I 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 loved before?

Don't you know
I heard it through the grapevine?
Not much longer, would you be mine?
Baby, I heard it through the grapevine
Ooh, I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah

Heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer
Would you be my baby?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Honey, honey, I know
(Heard it through the grapevine)
(Not much longer)
That you're letting me go (would you be my baby?)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Said I heard it through the grapevine
Ooh, heard it through the grapevine
