Lyrics Michael McDonald

Michael McDonald

I Heard It Through The Grapevine

I bet you're wondering how I knew

What you're plans to make me blue

With some other guy you knew before

Between the two of us caught, you know I love you more

It took me by surprise I must say when I found out yesterday

Don't you know, 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 yea

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 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 lose my mind

People say believe half of what you see

So believe none of what you hear

Well 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 left me for

Don't you know 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, yea

Honey honey, yea

Honey honey, love

That you let me go

Said, "I heard it through the grapevine"

Heard it, heard it through the grapevine

Said, "I heard it through the grapevine"

Honey honey, love

So let me go
