I think this song is about an affair...
'saving our secret for the weekends'
'motel walls and in disguise, telephone calls we don't reply' (- he won't answer the phone in front of his real girlfriend.)
the girl in the red dress is his 'bit on the side' who he sees as nothing more than a sex object, but she gets too clingy and asks to move in with him - 'and ask if i'll move out west with you' so he backs off realising he's 'in too deep' - and says 'i'll see you around'... the classic line to let someone know it's finished.
