I think the narrator is definitely singing about a woman he sleeps with occasionally. Sounds like she steps out quite a bit and has a bit of a drug problem.
But the more I listen to it, the more the narrator sounds like the deluded one. Sure, she's denying her sleeping around and drug use, but he's the one making excuses for her behavior when the reality is that he's just a lot more serious about her than she is about him. She's not really trying to hide anything with her "oh no, no, nos", just creating the space for him to make it about the other men and drugs when it's actually just that he's kidding himself about their relationship.
Who does she think that she's kidding with her denials this time? Well, not herself, but he sure seems to be willing to delude himself that they have more than they do. But, yeah, sure, buddy, no one knows her like you do. I'm sure if it weren't for the loneliness driving her to other men and coke every night, she'd remember you're deeply in love. Uh-huh. Sure. The narrator is the one kidding himself.
