set fire to the rain

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
Let it burn while I cry 
’Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

When laying 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
Let it burn 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
Where I felt somethin’ die, ’cause I knew that
That was the last time, the last time

Sometimes I wake up by the door 
Now that you’ve gone, must be waiting for you 
Even now when it’s 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 
Let it burn 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 
Where I felt somethin’ die 
’Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time, oh

Oh, no 
Let it burn, oh 
Let it burn 
Let it burn
