Lyric discussion by joannajoy 

I'm afraid I seem to vaguely remember an interview from the time where she said it was about an abusive relationship (maybe with someone older?) thus the shame the victim feels and the surprise in the shed.

Now it reminds me of The Reader (Der Vorleser).

Ooh - I like that, and it makes perfect sense. A relationship with a person who ticks all the boxes in terms of what you think turns you on, but nevertheless treats you like dirt - the result being that you end up feeling lousy about yourself (belonging "in the shed" and feeling nervous in company).

A story that doesn't end until you realise you don't really love the person (the only thing you want to say - "I love you" - is wrong) and finally pluck up the courage to end things.

@joannajoy This where my mind went! only after reading "& who ever would've thought the books that you brought were all I loved you for Oh the devil in me said go down to the shed I know where I belong But the only thing I ever really wanted to say Was wrong, was wrong, was wrong"
