Descrizione Description

There are songs that burn while they happen.
And others that keep burning long after.

This is not about the moment everything fell apart.
It’s about what remains… after the fire.

A slower, more intimate reinterpretation of "Set Fire to the Rain", reshaped into a deep blues house atmosphere with a subtle swing feel.
Less power, more weight.
Less explosion, more truth.

A voice close to you.
A groove that breathes.
Fragments of something that once was… still echoing.

Lyrics

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…
far too weak

To stand in your arms…
without falling…
to your feet

But there’s a side… to you…
I never knew…

All the things you’d say…
they were never true…

And the games you played…
you always… win…

But I set fire… to the rain…

Watched it pour…
as I touched your face

Yeah it burned…
while I cried…

’cause I heard it screaming…
out your name…
your name…

When I lay… 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…
I never knew…

All the things you’d say…
they were never true…

And the games you played…
you always… win…

But I set fire… to the rain…

Watched it pour…
as I touched your face

Yeah it burned…
while I cried…

’cause I heard it screaming…
out your name…

I set fire… to the rain…

And I threw us…
into the flames…

When we fell…
something died…

’cause I knew…
that was the last time…
the last time…

Sometimes…
I wake up… by the door…

That heart you caught…
must be waiting… for you…

Even now…
when we’re already over…

I can’t help myself…
from looking… for you…

But I set fire… to the rain…

Watched it pour…
as I touched your face

Yeah it burned…
while I cried…

’cause I heard it screaming…
out your name…

I set fire… to the rain…

And I threw us…
into the flames…

When we fell…
something died…

’cause I knew…
that was the last time…

Let it burn…
Let it burn…
