@foggydecember:

You are right! The lady at the end is the customer, not the prostitute.

Previous to the lady scene you can see a man walking out of her room with his shirt unbuttoned and keeping some bills in his pocket (a clear reference he is a male prostitute).

The facial expression of the lady at the end says it all; the inner emptiness, sadness (perhaps shame or guilt), and loneliness left after time's up and the "love" ends… the price of love I guess…

Great video, song and lyrics btw!
