Lyrics of I Heard It Through the Grapevine by Karen Souza

verse

I bet you're wonderin' how I knew
About your plans to make me blue
With some other girl that 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

chorus

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
I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah

verse

I know 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
That you love someone else

chorus

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

verse

People say believe half of what you see
Uh, and none of what you hear
I can't help bein' confused
If it's true, please, tell me dear
Do you plan to let me, let me go
For the other girl you loved before?

chorus

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
I'm just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey, yeah
Writer(s): Barrett Strong, Norman Whitfield
