To me this song is a nice twist on the traditional "finding out your lover is cheating" tale. The first few verses see the song's persona in an accusatory mode, describing the night when he discovered his lover going behind his back both bitterly and almost triumphantly. Then, suddenly, everything turns around at the end when the narrator admits that he still loves the woman despite her actions ("but somebody needs you/And that somebody is me". Despite everything, he shows that he's still completely in her thrall.
