[中文]

你一定在想我是怎么知道的吧

关于你让我伤心的计划

和你以前认识的某个男人在一起

在我们两个男人之间

你知道我更爱你

我必须说，这让我很吃惊

当我昨天发现的时候

难道你不知道我是从道听途说来的吗

你不再属于我了

噢，我是从道听途说来的

噢，我快要崩溃了

宝贝，宝贝耶

我是从道听途说来的，你不再属于我了，宝贝

我知道男人不应该哭泣

但是这些眼泪我无法抑制

失去你，我的生命就结束了，你知道吗

因为你对我来说太重要了

你可以自己告诉我

说你爱上了别人

但我却从道听途说来的

你不再属于我了

噢，我是从道听途说来的

噢，我快要崩溃了

宝贝，宝贝耶

我是从道听途说来的，你不再属于我了，宝贝

人们说，你看到的要信一半

听到的，有些信，有些别信

但我还是感到困惑

如果是真的，请你告诉我，亲爱的

你打算放我走吗

为了你以前爱的那个男人

难道你不知道我是从道听途说来的吗

你不再属于我了

宝贝，我是从道听途说来的

噢，我快要崩溃了

宝贝，宝贝耶

我是从道听途说来的，你不再属于我了，宝贝

宝贝，宝贝我知道

我是从道听途说来的，你不再属于我了，宝贝

你要离开我了

我说我是从道听途说来的

噢，我是从道听途说来的

...

[英语]

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 I loved you more

It took me by surprise I must say

When I found out yesterday

Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine

Not much longer would you be mine

Oh, I heard it through the grapevine

Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey, honey yeah

I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine, baby

I know a man ain't supposed to cry

But these tears i can't hold inside

Losing you would end my life you see

Cause you mean that much to me

You could have told me yourself

That you loved someone else

Instead I heard it through the grapevine

Not much longer would you be mine

Oh, I heard it through the grapevine

Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey, honey yeah

I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine, baby

People say believe half of what you see

Some and none of what you hear

But I can't help to be 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 that I heard it through the grapevine

Not much longer would you be mine

Baby, i heard it through the grapevine

Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind

Honey, honey yeah

I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine, baby

Honey, honey i know

I heard it through the grapevine, not much longer would you be mine, baby

That you letting me go

I say i heard it through the grapevine

Oh, I heard it through the grapevine

重点语法结构

• I bet you're wondering how I knew

  ➔ 间接疑问句

  ➔ 短语 "how I knew" 作为一个名词性从句，嵌入在主句中。不是像 "How did I know?" 这样的直接提问，而是表达了对对方想法的陈述。这种结构在英语中很常见，可以缓和问题或表达好奇。

• With some other guy you knew before

  ➔ 关系从句（简化）

  ➔ 短语 "you knew before" 是一个简化的关系从句，修饰 "some other guy"。完整的句子应该是 "some other guy *that/whom* you knew before"。关系代词 (that/whom) 被省略。

• Don't you know that I heard it through the grapevine

  ➔ 反问句

  ➔ 虽然不是字面意义上的附加疑问句，但 "Don't you know that..." 起着类似的作用，邀请同意或强调一个观点。它表达了对听众竟然不知道信息的不信任。

• Not much longer would you be mine

  ➔ 倒装 (为了强调)

  ➔ 通常情况下，句子应该是 "You would not be mine much longer"。“would” 和 "you" 的倒装强调了短语 "Not much longer”，吸引人们注意关系中剩余的有限时间。这是为了戏剧性的效果。

• I know a man ain't supposed to cry

  ➔ 非标准方言 ("ain't")

  ➔ "Ain't" 是一种非标准缩略语，通常在非正式讲话中使用或表示特定方言。在这种语境下，它代替了 "is not"。请注意，在标准英语中，“I know that a man is not supposed to cry” 将是常见的表达方式。

• But these tears i can't hold inside

  ➔ 省略 'that'

  ➔ 单词“that”可以在充当动词对象的定语从句中省略。完整的句子是“But these tears that I can't hold inside”。
