I've read what made this song, and the trip to Africa and such.
But personally, I feel that this song is about a couple who have had some trouble with their relationship. And to me it's as if the person singing is the one who has done something wrong (cheat, lie, whatever) and they're trying to fix it...
And when it goes 'Oh you gotta fire and it's burnin' in the rain
Thought that it went out, but it's burnin' just the same
And you don't look back, not for anything' that's them saying that they can see in the other person that the fire of the love is still there in them, and that they aren't going to look back at the past mistakes because they love the person anyway...and the part 'if you love someone you love them all the same' is them saying look you love me, and you really love me then you'll love me regardless of my past mistakes...
And then this part 'I know the memories rushing into mind
I want to kiss your scars tonight
I'm laying here,
'Cause you've gotta try, you've gotta let me in, let me in' Is them saying I was there I know what the memories are like and I know how you were happy and were hurt, and I want to make things better. And that you have to try and remember what it was like and let me back in because you love me and things can be good again, you just have to trust me again...
