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