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