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