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, 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
If he's pleading with you like I pleaded with you
Or 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
And you were the last to know, you were the last to know
Don't let me be the last to know

Don't let me be the last to know
No, no, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no
