Look at us baby Up all night Tearing the love apart Aren't we the same two People who lived through the years In the dark Oh no Every time I try to walk away Something makes me turn around and stay
And I can't tell you why No baby I can't tell you why I can't tell you why Oh no No baby
When we're crazy It just ain't right Cause baby I get lonely too You don't have to worry Baby hold on tight You've got to know I'll always love you Nothing's wrong as far as I can see You make it harder than it has to be
And I can't tell you why No I can't tell you why I can't tell you why Every time I try to walk away
Something makes me turn around and stay It's your love And it makes me feel real good So I can't tell you So I can't tell you I can't I can't I can't tell you No I can't tell you (repeat) I can't tell you why I love you Love you, love you I need your love baby And so Won't you help me Won't you help me I've gotta tell you why I've gotta tell you why I wanna be your only thing I wanna be your only thing Tell me why Tell me why Somebody tell me why Somebody tell me why Tell me why Please tell me why I can't tell you baby
Ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh... Ooh...I heard (I heard) it through grapevyne (Boy, you know that I)
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, I really do) 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 (Oh...) 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 did me wrong and told me lies) Never do somethin' 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) Lovin' me could have been good (Losing my love was a shame, baby)
I heard it through the grapevine (Oh, no) That you ain't feeling too fine (No-no-no, baby) Hope that you feel much better Yes, I do (I really, really do, baby) really
Happened on the day I left (It happened on the day I left) Since that day you haven't been the best (You haven't been the best, baby) Hope that you feel much better (No-no-no-no) 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 did me wrong and told me lies) Never do somethin' 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) Lovin' me could have been good (Losing my love was a shame)
I heard it through the grapevine That you ain't feeling too fine (Oh, no) Hope that you feel much better Yes, I do (I really, really do, baby) really
Happened on the day I left (It happened on the day I left) Since that day you haven't been the best (You haven't been the best, baby) 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 baby)
Deep in my heart I feel sorry for you (You had to lose a damn good thing) Lovin' me could have been good (Losing my good love was such a shame)
I heard it through the grapevine That you ain't feelin' too fine (Oh, no) Hope that you feel much better (Hey...) Yes, I do (I really, 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) Hope that you feel much better Yes, I do (I love it, oh, no)
Heard it through, heard it through (No-no-no-no-no-no-no) I heard it through that grapevyne (I heard it) Heard it through (Grapevyne), heard it through Grapevyne, grapevyne (I heard it)
Heard it through, heard it through I heard it through that grapevyne Hope that you feel much better Yes, I do
