Grapevyne - Brownstone

I heard it through the grapevine

That you ain’t feelin' too fine

And 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 that I was your only

Boy, was I wrong, so wrong

Never do somethin' that’ll catch up to ya

(You had to lose a damn good thing)

Lovin' me could have been good

(Losing my love was a shame, baby)

I heard it through the grapevine

That you ain’t feelin' too fine (No, no, baby)

And I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do (I really do, baby) really

Happened on the day I left

Since that day you haven’t been the best (You haven’t been the best, baby, no,

no, no)

And I hope that you feel much better (Oh)

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 somethin' that’ll catch up to ya

(You had to lose a damn good thing)

Lovin' me could have been good

(Losing my love was a shame, baby)

I heard it through the grapevine

That you ain’t feelin' too fine

And I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do (I really do, baby) really

Happened on the day I left

Since that day you haven’t been the best (You haven’t been the best, babe)

And I 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 lovin'

Yes, all I really needed was your lovin'

I was your lady and there’s nothin 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 lovin'

Yes, all I really needed was your lovin', hey

Never do somethin' that’ll catch up to ya

(You did me wrong and told me lies)

Never do somethin' that you’ll live to regret

(You hurt me so bad now babe)

Deep in my heart I feel sorry for ya

(You had to lose a damn good thing)

Lovin' me could have been good

(Losing my good love was such a shame, baby)

I heard it through the grapevine

That you ain’t feelin' too fine

And I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do (I really do, baby)

Happened on the day I left

Since that day you haven’t been the best (You haven’t been the best, baby)

And I hope that you feel much better

Yes, I do (Oh, lovin', oh, no)

Heard it through, heard it through (No-no-no-no-no-no-no)

I heard it through that great grapevyne (I heard it)

Heard it through (Grapevyne), heard it through

Grapevyne, grapevyne
