Set Fire To The Rain
♥Adele Lyrics

I let it fall, my heart
I allowed myself to emotionally fall for you.

And as it fell, you rose to claim it
And as I fell, you took advantage of my vulnerability.

It was dark and I was over
I was feeling hopeless and lost.

Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
Until you showed me a glimmer of hope and I felt alive again.

My hands, they're strong
I am a strong person.

But my knees were far too weak
But my emotional state made me vulnerable to you.

To stand in your arms
Being close to you was overpowering.

Without falling to your feet
Without being completely under your control.

But there's a side to you
You have a hidden side to your personality.

That I never knew, never knew
That I was unaware of.

All the things you'd say
All the lies you told me.

They were never true, never true
They were never sincere.

And the games you play
And the manipulative tactics you used.

You would always win, always win
You always got what you wanted.

But I set fire to the rain
But I am taking control and breaking free.

Watched it pour as I touched your face
Destroying the relationship while looking into your eyes.

Well, it burned while I cried
I was hurting while I ended things.

'Cause I heard it screaming out your name
Because I associated the rain with you and what we had.

Your name
You were the inspiration behind this action.

When I lay with you
When we were together.

I could stay there
I loved being with you.

Close my eyes
Closing off the world and just being with you.

Feel you here forever
Feeling like we would be together forever.

You and me together, nothing gets better
We were the perfect pair and nothing was better than being together.

Sometimes I wake up by the door
Sometimes I find myself at the door where we used to be together.

That heart you caught must be waiting for you
Someone else must be waiting for you now.

Even now, when we're already over
Even though our relationship is finished.

I can't help myself from looking for you
I am still drawn to you even though I know it's over.

And I threw us into the flames
I purposely destroyed what we had.

When it fell, something died
When our relationship ended, a part of me died too.

Cause I knew that that was the last time
I realized that this was the end of our story.

Let it burn
Let everything that happened between us be over and done with.
