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 :)

To stand in your arms
It was dark and I was over
I let it fall, my heart,
Without falling to your feet
But my knees were far too weak,
And as it fell you rose to claim it
My hands, they're strong
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
 
You would always win, always win.
But there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew.
They were never true, never true,
And the games you play
All the things you'd say
 
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!
 
Feel you here forever
Close my eyes
Nothing is better
I could stay there
When I lay with you
You and me together
 
All the things you'd say,
They were never true, never true,
'Cause there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew,
And the games you play
You would always win, always win.
 
Well, it burned while I cried
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
But I set fire to the rain,
your name!
 
And I threw us into the flames
the last time!
Where it felt something die
'Cause I knew that that was the last time,
I set fire to the rain
 
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,
 
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name,
Well, it burned while I cried
I set fire to the rain,
your name
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
 
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
