The speaker recalls falling for someone who claimed their heart but then left them feeling dark and alone. They wake up longing for the person whose heart they once held. The speaker reveals this person showed them a side they never knew, saying things that were never true. The speaker set fire to the rain, letting it pour on the person's face as they screamed out their name, feeling it may have been the last time together.

It ___ dark and I _____ over Until you _____ my lips and you _____ me My hands, they're strong But my knees ______ far too weak, To stand in your arms Without falling to your feet
Sometimes I wake up by the door,
That heart you ______ must be waiting for you Even now when we're already over I can't help myself from looking for you. [Chorus:]
But there's a side to you
That I never ______, never _______. All the things you'd say They were never true, never true, And the games you play You ______ always win, always win. [Chorus:] But I set fire to the rain, ______ it pour as I ________ your face, Well, it _______ while I ______ 'Cause I ________ it screaming out your name, your name! When I lay with you I _______ stay there Close my eyes Feel you here forever You and me together Nothing gets better
[Chorus:]
I set fire to the rain
And I _____ us into the flames When it ______, something _____ 'Cause I ______that that ______ the last time, the last time! Strumming my pain with his fingers Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
But he just kept right on
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words
Strumming my pain with his fingers
Killing me softly with his song
Singing my life with his words
Killing me softly with his song
I _______ he _______ a good song
Killing me softly with his song
I ______ he _____ a style
Telling my whole life with his words
And so I _______ to see him
Killing me softly with his song
To listen for a while
He _____ as if he ______ me
And there he ______ this young boy
In all my dark despair
A stranger to my eyes
And then he l_______ right through
me
Strumming my pain with his fingers
As if I ______ there
Singing my life with his words
And he just _____on singing
Killing me softly with his song
Singing clear and strong
Killing me softly with his song
Telling my whole life with his words Killing me softly with his song I ____ all _______ with fever _________ by the crowd I ______ he ______ my letters And ______ each one out loud I _______ that he ________ finish
