Grapevyne

I heard it through the grapevine

Boy, you know that I heard it through the grapevine

That you ain't feeling too fine

And I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do, I really do, I really do

Happened on the day I left

Since that day you haven't been the best

I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do

You looked into my eyes

You said to me that night

That you would never cheat on me

Or break my heart

Inside I never knew

Your love was so untrue

I thought I was your only

Boy, was I wrong, so wrong

Never do something that'll catch up to ya

You did me wrong and told me lies

Never do something that you'll live to regret

You hurt me so bad, babe

Deep in my heart I feel sorry for ya

You had to lose a damn good thing

Loving me could have been good

Losing my love was a shame, baby

I heard it through the grapevine

That you ain't feeling too fine

And I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do, baby

Happened on the day I left

Since that day you haven't been the best

Hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do

We choose to play love games

We lose, we face the pain

Those lonely nights and that heartache

That empty space

I'll share with you my dreams

Those precious tender things

Everybody plays a fool

I guess I played my part for you

Never do something that'll catch up to ya

You did me wrong and told me lies

Never do something that you'll live to regret

You hurt me so bad, babe

Deep in my heart I feel sorry for ya

You had to lose a damn good thing

Loving me could have been good

Losing my love was a shame

I heard it through the grapevine

That you ain't feeling too fine

And I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do

Happened on the day I left

Since that day you haven't been the best

Hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do

Oh boy, you had my faith, you had my trust, you had my love

But now I have to take it back, it didn't work for us

And all I really needed was your loving

Yes, all I really needed was your loving

I was your lady and there's nothing that I would not do

Now here's a Dear John letter that I've written just for you

And all I really needed was your loving

Yes, all I really needed was your loving, hey yeah

Never do something that'll catch up to ya

You did me wrong and told me lies

Never do something that you'll live to regret

You hurt me so bad, now, baby

Deep in my heart I feel sorry for ya

You had to lose a damn good thing

Loving me could have been good

Losing my good love was such a shame

I heard it through the grapevine

That you ain't feeling too fine

And I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do

Happened on the day I left

Since that day you haven't been the best

Hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do

Heard it through, heard it through

I heard it through that grapevine

Heard it through, heard it through, grapevine, grapevine

Heard it through, heard it through, heard it through that great big vine

Hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do
