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 :)

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