[1968]
I Heard It Through The Grapevine
Ooh, I bet you're wondering how I knew
'bout 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...
Chorus:
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.
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...
'bout 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...

Instead...
Chorus
People say believe half of what you see,
son, 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 go
for the other guy you loved before?
Don't you know...
Chorus
Ho sentito dire in giro
Scommetto che ti stai chiedendo come ho saputo
delle tue intenzioni di farmi diventare triste
A causa di un altro ragazzo che conoscevi da prima
Tra noi due, lo sai che amo più te
Devo dire che mi ha colto di sorpresa,
Quando l'ho saputo ieri
Rit:
Ho sentito dire in giro
Che non sarai mia mai più
Ho sentito dire in giro e
Sono sul punto di impazzire
Tu sai che un uomo non dovrebbe piangere
Ma non riesco a trattenere queste lacrime
Se perdessi te finirebbe la mia vita
perché tu significhi cosi tanto per me
Avresti potuto dirmelo tu stessa
Che hai trovato qualcun altro, invece
Rit
La gente dice di credere sola alla metà di quello che vedi
E a nulla di quello che si senti dire
Non riesco ad essere altro che confuso
Amore, se è vero perché non me lo dici
Hai intenzione di lascarmi
Per quell'altro ragazzo che amavi da prima?
Non sai che...
Rit
