| Adele – Set Fire to the Rain Lyrics | 12 years ago |
| She is saying goodbye.. it's pouring (tears pouring down her face like rain) and she is touching his face for the last time. She still loves him but he is poison to her and she knows it. (I threw us into the flames) | |

She set fire to the rain because the burning in her heart sets fire to the rain of her tears... her tears burn/sting her face, but she knows she's done crying for him (in that way "I knew that that was the last time") so she set fire (destroyed) the rain (her tears) and "threw us into the flames".... so she let it hurt to burn away everything... Fire destroys and rain washes things away "Let it burn" It's too easy for her to fall for him so she has to let it burn away everything of the two of them in order to preserve herself. But her heart was still screaming out his name... she still wishes that she could have him, she still loves him even... but there were too many lies and games so rather than letting him keep hurting her over and over she just let herself feel all of the pain until it was more than she could bear (well I felt something die... I knew that this was the last time...) |
