So you're in love with someone else
Someone who burns within your soul
And it looks like I am 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 wanna 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

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 cheating on you like I cheated on you
Oh oh oh
You were the last to know
You were the last to know
Don't let me be the last to know
