In midair and floating off to space,
I’m moving in,
Your hair is falling all around my face,
Like a parachute,
I’m breathing in,
You’re breathing out the same,
We give and take,
And let the water fall on the flame,
It’s not burning out
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
And I will hold your body slowly turning,
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
Breathe it in,
We’ll take it off and soak our skin
Soak our skin
She’s in a town that holds a lonely road,
And the night is falling,
There’s a road that follows to a home,
And the sky is heavy,
In the home she’s in a lonely room,
With music playing,
Can she hear my heart coming through,
On the door between
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
And I will hold your body slowly turning,
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
Breathe it in,
We’ll take it off and soak
Maybe I’ll find you,
Maybe I won’t,
Baby I’ll try to,
Even if I don’t,
You are what I never knew I needed,
What I never knew I needed,
What I never knew I needed,
Almost there
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
And I will hold your body slowly turning,
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
Breathe it in,
We’ll take it off and soak our skin
Soak our skin
I’m moving in,
Your hair is falling all around my face,
Like a parachute,
I’m breathing in,
You’re breathing out the same,
We give and take,
And let the water fall on the flame,
It’s not burning out
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
And I will hold your body slowly turning,
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
Breathe it in,
We’ll take it off and soak our skin
Soak our skin
She’s in a town that holds a lonely road,
And the night is falling,
There’s a road that follows to a home,
And the sky is heavy,
In the home she’s in a lonely room,
With music playing,
Can she hear my heart coming through,
On the door between
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
And I will hold your body slowly turning,
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
Breathe it in,
We’ll take it off and soak
Maybe I’ll find you,
Maybe I won’t,
Baby I’ll try to,
Even if I don’t,
You are what I never knew I needed,
What I never knew I needed,
What I never knew I needed,
Almost there
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
And I will hold your body slowly turning,
I’ll keep you warm,
Dancing in a downpour,
Breathe it in,
We’ll take it off and soak our skin
Soak our skin

I am going to interpret this song the way it relates to me, just because I really feel a connection to this song.
I interpret this song as a boy in love with a girl that is closed off from everyone else. The first stanza is describing this intimate moment with this girl, describing his love by saying, "let the water fall on the flame, it's not burning out."
Although they had an intimate moment, magical in his eyes, the third stanza tells of the girl. "She's in a town that holds a lonely road." She holds no intimate relationships, she has a heavy heart. She has isolated herself from the world. She has closed off her heart from everyone else ( "can she hear my heart coming through on the door between")
The fifth stanza is just him saying he will continue to try and get through to her. Even if he fails in his attempts, he will not give up on her because she is "what I never knew I needed."
The chorus of the song is just him reassuring her. "I'll keep you warm, dancing in the downpour." He will protect her and love her through all the hard times. He is just telling her to free herself from this prison she created for herself, she will be safe in his arms.
This is my interpretation. I am currently going through a situation like this. I could be wrong because I see this song through my experience. But this is how I connected with the song.
Exactly what I thought when I heard it for the first time, but I'm also in this situation that makes me connected with the song in this way.
A good song. To me it means embracing love and life, dancing in the rain...the downpour.
This is such a sexy song, in my opinion. I believe the whole first part of this song is talking about and describing the intenseness and sensual aura before sex. This line ''And let the water fall on the flame, It’s not burning out'' ties in the chorus in such a beautiful way. He's comparing him and his love to a said ''flame'' and saying ''let water fall on it it, but its still not gonna burn out''..and the whole chorus goes along with that. The second verse in harder to piece with the rest of the song. My take is that they perhaps live in different places..don't see each other as often as they would like and so she's lonely in that town without him there. He loves her though and wants her to know it ''Can she hear my heart coming through, on the door between''...the ending ''Maybe Ill find you.... exedra exedra..'' he probably went to wherever she lives looking for her, he doesn't exactly know how to find her but he's trying. If he doesn't find her he's saying I realize you are what I needed but I didn't know until now.
Its sexy, romantic, and amazing. I love this song..there is no going wrong. Definitely in my top five. Id love it to hear what other people think about this song or what it might mean to then or in they're point of view. :)
