So you're in love with someone else

Someone who burns within your soul

And it looks like I'm the last to know

I hear you've never felt so alive

So much desire beyond control

And as usual I am the last to know



The last to know how you're feeling

The last to know where you are

The last to know if you're happy now

Or if he's treating you like I treated you

Or if he's cruel I'll be the last to know



We spent summers up beyond the bay

And you said these are such perfect days

That if the bomb drops baby, I want to be the last to know

But now you're living up behind the hill

And though we share the same city and feel the same sun

When your winter comes

I'll be the last to know



Always the last to know how you're feeling

The last to know where you are

The last to know if you're happy now

Or if he's pleading with you like I pleaded with you

If you go don't let me be the last to know

Don't let me be the last

To know



Creation's gone crazy, the TV's gone mad

Now you're the only sane thing that I have



The last to know how you're feeling

The last to know where you are

The last to know if you're happy now

Or if he's cheating on you like I cheated on you

And you were the last to know
