Baby I know I heard it through I heard I through I heard it through Said, I heard it through the grapevine Oh baby, I bet you're wondering, how I knew About your plans to make me blue With some other guy you knew before Between the two of us guys, you know love you more You took me by surprise When I heard you just met yesterday Don't you know heard it through the grapevine Not that sure you'll be mine I heard it through the grapevine And honey, I'm about to lose my mind I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine Ooh you know a man ain't suppose to cry But these tears I can't hold inside Losing you would end my life you see
Because you mean that much to me You could have told me yourself That you've gone and found someone else Instead I heard it through the grapevine, that no longer would you be mine I heard it through the grapevine, honey I'm just about to lose my mind I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be, my baby People say they hide from what you see So, in love with what you hear I've been hurt I've been confused But if it's true, won't you tell me dear Do you plan to let me go For another guy who says he loves you more 'Cause I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine I heard it through the grapevine, and honey I'm just about to lose my mind I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be, my baby I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be, my baby I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be, my baby
Meet me in the playground at a quarter to four Wait till everybody's (long) gone There must be so many things that we can explore Maybe I can walk you home If it starts to rain - we can take some shelter I'd like to hold your little hand My heart is spinning like a helter-skelter We'll get to know each other if we can
Chorus She said hey - wait a minute - hold on She said hey - just a little bit - hold on When ever I try to think of what it feels like to feel it For the frst time, and was it really such a thrill She said look, boy - but don't you touch
that ain't much - only a school boy crush
Got to keep this secret - can't take no chance Don't want nobody else to know There is nothing wrong with trying to start a romance (But) we should take it rather slow If we play it cool - It'll be all right Don't let the teacher see us talking But after school we will be out of sight Everybody gonna think we just gone walkin'
