The Last to Know Lyrics by Johnny Hates Jazz

The Very Best of Johnny Hates Jazz

0

Innocence is just a game you play with me
I didn't see behind the mask you wore
I turn my back and you were out with someone new
Didn't I fall for that

Oh why, I never knew love could be like this
The bitterest taste after the sweetest kiss

Everybody tells me so
Why do I have to be the last to know
You can tell it to my face
And then you can go
I'm the first to get hurt
How can I be the last to know

I met a guest I was warned by all my friends
I didn't know you were one of a kind
And every word you told me night after night
Oh, it was all one big lie

Oh why, I never knew I could be so blind
You were twisting the knife saying that you were mine

Everybody tells me so
Why do I have to be the last to know
You can tell it to my face
And then you can go
I'm the first to get hurt
How can I be the last to know

Oh why, I never knew love could be like this
The bitterest taste after the sweetest kiss

Everybody tells me so
Why do I have to be the last to know
You can see that I'm hurt
'Cause my feelings show
I'm the first to get fooled
And yet the last to know, yeah, yeah

You always said that you were mine, all mine

It's just a game, the last to know

Somebody new just playing with me

How could I be the last to know, the last to know
