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 :)

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