I let it fall, my heart,
And as it fell you rose to claim it.
It was dark and I was over,
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me.
My hands they were strong, but my knees were far too weak,
To stand into your arms without falling to your feet.
But there's a side to you that I never knew, I never knew.
All the things you'd say they were never true, never true,
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win.
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried,
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
When I lay with you I could stay there,
Close my eyes, feel you here forever,
You and me together, nothing is better!
Cause there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew,
All the things you'd say they were never true, never true,
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win
But I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned while I cried,
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
I set fire to the rain
And I feel lost into the flames,
Well, I felt something died
Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
And heard you calling, must be waiting for you
Even that when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for you
I set fire to the rain,
Watched it pour as I touched your face,
Well, it burned when I cried,
'Cause I heard it screaming out you name, your name!
I set fire to the rain
And I feel lost into the flames,
Well, I felt something died
Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!
Oh, no,
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn,
Let it burn!
