Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And as it fell, your rules 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 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
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 laying 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's 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
When we fell, 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 touch 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
When we fell, something died
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, oh
Oh oh, no
Let it burn, oh
Let it burn
Let it burn
The lyrics to Andrew Muccitelli's "Set Fire to the Rain" speak of a powerful love that was both a savior and a destroyer. The first verse begins with the singer dropping their heart, only for it to be claimed by the person they were in love with. The singer seemed to be in a state of despair until their lover kissed them, giving them the strength to stand again. However, despite the strength in the singer's heart, their knees remain weak in loving this person because of the pain and lies that came with loving them. The chorus speaks of the singer setting fire to the rain and watching it pour as they touch their lover's face, feeling the pain of the love that was never true. It is as though the rain is a metaphor for the tears the singer cried, as they heard the rain screaming out their lover's name. The second verse speaks of how the singer could stay wrapped in their lover's arms and forget the world, but there was a side of their lover that they never knew - one full of lies and games that they always won. Despite this, the singer still loved them deeply. The bridge speaks of the singer waking up by the door, looking for the heart that their lover took with him even though it is over. The final chorus speaks of the singer throwing themselves and their lover into the flames, knowing that something would die in the process. The love was too powerful to forget or let go of, but it couldn't be saved no matter how they tried.
Line by Line Meaning
I let it fall, my heart
I made myself vulnerable and gave you my heart
And as it fell, your rules to claim it
As my heart fell, you took advantage of my vulnerability and made up your own rules for how to treat me
It was dark and I was over
I was in a dark place and ready to give up
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
But then you came along and gave me hope by kissing me and making me feel loved
My hands, they were strong, but my knees were far too weak
I was physically strong, but emotionally weak in your presence
To stand in your arms without falling to your feet
I couldn't be close to you without feeling completely overwhelmed
But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew
You had a hidden side that I was not aware of
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true
You were not honest with me and everything you said turned out to be a lie
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win
You manipulated the relationship and always came out on top
But I set fire to the rain
I took control of the situation and fought back against your power
Watched it pour as I touched your face
I stood my ground and watched the rain fall as I confronted you
Well, it burned while I cried
It hurt me, but I refused to back down
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name
The rain and my emotions were calling out your name in a moment of reckoning
When I laying with you I could stay there
There were moments where I felt safe and content in your arms
Close my eyes, feel you here forever
I wanted to hold onto that feeling of security forever
You and me together, nothing gets better
I believed in our love and thought we were meant to be together
And the games you'd play, you would always win, always win
But you continued to manipulate me and come out on top
But I set fire to the rain
Once again, I took control and fought back against your power
And I threw us into the flames
I was willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of my own emotional health
When we fell, something died
Our relationship was ruined, and something inside of me died as a result
'Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time
I was finally ready to let go and move on from the toxic relationship
Sometimes I wake up by the door
Even now, I still think about you and have trouble letting go
That heart you caught must be waiting for you
I imagine that someone else has my heart now, waiting for you to hurt them as well
Even now when we're already over
Despite everything, I struggle to accept that we're really over
I can't help myself from looking for you
I still long for you and can't help but seek you out
Let it burn
I am finally ready to let go of the pain and move on
Let it burn
I am ready to let go of the past and start anew
Let it burn
I am determined to heal and find happiness again

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
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

In 2015 i was 9 . Found his cover Before the orginal and used to be a big fan and listen to his cover all day. Suddenly i couldn't able to find it anywhere on YouTube literally nowhere. After so many years later in 2023 now i found it on search of "fire to the rain boy cover" still feel the charm of this song in his voice♥️
@mattbirch2323
Love this very music
@anetteheckert4111
Ich höre es mir von Zeit zu Zeit immer wieder an, wenn ich darauf stoße. Nach den vielen Jahren für mich immer wieder ergreifend rein und voller Kraft. Ein wahrhaftiges Meisterwerk, vermutlich über alle Zeit. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
@MrJackGiacomo
Ten years later the music is still very intense to listen to both of them did so good it must have been a draining feeling afterward because it was a long song but such rich sounds the piano and harp like a dance in the halls of time . Once a video /song is made and recorded it is there forever rightfully so I consider this a gentle masterpiece in my humble opinion .
@Sandy-pr5qq
I agree beautiful
@shanealberts414
