Set fire to the rain -live concert

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 :)

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