This song is like a movie that throws you for a loop at the end, ala The Sixth Sense. You feel sorry for the writer throughout the whole song because he leads the listener to believe that that he was always the last to know about certain things in their relationship and that the writer/singer ended the relationship because he was always "the last to know" what was happening. But then the kicker at the end reveals that he was cheating on her and that she most likely ended the realationship.
@Fein Mess That's close but I don't think she ended the relationship because he cheated. she ended it because she was falling for someone else. The song seems to be from his point of view as she is finally coming clean about her new relationship to him. I could see her perhaps packing while they talk. The final line is kind of a poison pill when he tells her that years ago he cheated and she never new. Knowing that will cause her to 2nd guess her choice in her head a little.He figures it's over so what the heck....
