Lyrics

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're strong  
But my knees were far too weak  
To stand in your arms  
Without falling to your feet  
  
But 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 play  
You would always win, always win  
  
[Chorus]  
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 gets 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 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 threw us into the flames  
Well, it felt something died  
'Cause I knew that that was  
The last time, the last time  
  
Sometimes I wake up by the door,  
That heart you caught must be waiting for you  
Even now 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 while I cried  
'Cause I heard it screaming Out your name,  
Your name  
  
I set fire to the rain,  
And I threw us into the flames  
Well, it felt something died  
'Cause I knew that, that was the last time  
The last time  
  
Let it burn  
Let it burn  
Let it burn
