I Heard It Through The Grapevine Lyrics - Elton John

Written by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong 

Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew 

About you're plans to make me blue 

With some other guy that 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 and I'm just about to lose my mind 

Honey, honey yeah

I know that 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 somebody else 

Instead I heard it through the grapevine 

Not much longer would you be mine 

Oh I heard it through the grapevine 

Oh and I'm just about to lose my mind 

Honey, honey yeah 

People say believe half of what you see 

Son, and none of what you hear 

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 that I heard it through the grapevine 

Not much longer would you be mine 

Oh I heard it through the grapevine 

Oh and I'm just about to lose my mind 

Honey, honey yeah
