The song is talking about a relationship coming to an end; the heart-ripping pain of breaking off. 

Adele told Q magazine that the title came to her, "in the middle of the night when I got up for a wee…". Not very romantic, but that's life :)

To stand in your arms
I let it fall, my heart,
But my knees were far too weak,
Without falling to your feet
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
And as it fell you rose to claim it
My hands, they're strong
It was dark and I was over
 
But there's a side to you
You would always win, always win.
They were never true, never true,
That I never knew, never knew.
And the games you play
All the things you'd say
 
Well, it burned while I cried
your name!
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
But I set fire to the rain,
 
Close my eyes
Feel you here forever
When I lay with you
I could stay there
You and me together
Nothing is better
 
That I never knew, never knew,
You would always win, always win.
They were never true, never true,
'Cause there's a side to you
And the games you play
All the things you'd say,
 
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
your name!
But I set fire to the rain,
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name,
Well, it burned while I cried
 
'Cause I knew that that was the last time,
I set fire to the rain
Where it felt something die
And I threw us into the flames
the last time!
 
I can't help myself from looking for ya.
Even now when we're already over
That heart you caught must be waiting for ya
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
 
your name
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name,
I set fire to the rain,
 
I set fire to the rain,
Where it felt something die
'Cause I knew that that was the last time,
the last time, ohhhh!
And I threw us into the flames
 
Oh noooo
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn
Let it burn
