[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
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 in your arms
~#**************#~
Without falling to your feet
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
But theres a side to you
~#**************#~
That I never knew, never knew
~#**************#~
All the things youd say
~#**************#~
They were never true, never true
~#**************#~
And the games youd 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 screamin out your name
~#**************#~
Your name
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
When I lay with you
~#**************#~
I could stay there, close my eyes
~#**************#~
Feel you here forever
~#**************#~
You and me together, nothing is better
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
‘Cause theres a side to you
~#**************#~
That I never knew, never knew
~#**************#~
All the things youd say
~#**************#~
They were never true, never true
~#**************#~
And the games youd 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 screamin out your name
~#**************#~
Your name
~#**************#~
I set fire to the rain
~#**************#~
And I threw us into the flames
~#**************#~
When we fell, somethin died
~#**************#~
‘Cause I knew that that was the last time
~#**************#~
The last time
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Sometimes, I wake up by the door
~#**************#~
That heart you caught must be waitin for you
~#**************#~
Even now, when were already over
~#**************#~
I cant help myself from lookin for you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I set fire to the rain
~#**************#~
Watched it pour as I touched your face
~#**************#~
Well, it burned while I cried
~#**************#~
‘Cause I heard it screamin out your name
~#**************#~
Your name
~#**************#~
I set fire to the rain
~#**************#~
And I threw us into the flames
~#**************#~
When we fell, somethin died
~#**************#~
‘Cause I knew that that was the last time
~#**************#~
The last time
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
Oh
~#**************#~
Oh, no
~#**************#~
Let it burn
~#**************#~
Oh
~#**************#~
Let it burn
~#**************#~
Let it burn
~#**************#~
