“Set Fire to the Rain” is a song recorded by English singer-songwriter Adele for her second studio album, 21 (2011). The song was written by Adele and Fraser T. Smith while the production was handled by the latter. It became Adele’s third consecutive US number-one single from 21 and reached the top ten in most of the other foreign markets. It is a power-pop ballad with lush instrumentation and a swelling string arrangement, in contrast to the understated production of most songs on the album. The song has received acclaim from various critics with many complimenting Adele’s vocals but received comparisons to Bruno Mars’s song “Grenade”. “Set Fire to the Rain” was voted by readers of Billboard as their favourite number-one hit of 2012.[1] Though no official music video was released for the song, a live performance from the DVD Live at the Royal Albert Hall was uploaded to the video-sharing website YouTube. This rendition won the Grammy Award for Best Pop Solo Performance at the 55th Annual Grammy Awards.

Lyrics

[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 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

[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 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

[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 it 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 we’re already over
I can’t 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 it 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
