An end of a relationship. Obvious. But what kind of relationship? The line "We're not the only ones" changed everything for me. I think this is about the end of an affair where one or both of them were in relationships and having an affair with each other. "Love in the Dark"? Love hidden because it's an affair...love in the dark - not out in the open and in the light. She can't do it anymore so she's walking away...
Maybe a little dark for an Adele song, but it's what I hear...
