Gentle Rain
Antonio Carlos Jobim/Astrud Gilberto/João Gilberto/Stan Getz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We both are lost
And alone in the world
Walk with me
In the gentle rain
Don't be afraid, I've a hand
For your hand and i
Will be your love for a while
I feel your tears as they fall
On my cheek
They are warm like gentle rain
Come little one you have me in the
World and our love will be sweet
Very sweet

Our love will
Be sweet very sad
Very sweet like gentle rain




Like the gentle rain
Like the gentle rain

Overall Meaning

The song "Gentle Rain" starts with the statement "We both are lost and alone in the world", which is a reflection on the sense of loneliness that people sometimes experience, even when surrounded by others. The following line "Walk with me in the gentle rain" portrays the image of two people holding hands and walking together through the rain, as a metaphor for finding solace and companionship in each other. The singer urges the listener not to be afraid, assuring them that they will be there for them through thick and thin.


The second verse talks about the singer feeling the listener's tears falling on their cheek and describes them as warm like gentle rain. This highlights the theme of emotional vulnerability and how it can bring two people together. The singer then assures the listener that they have them in the world and that their love will be sweet, despite the challenges they may face. The repetition of the phrase "Very sweet like gentle rain" reinforces the theme of finding peace through love and companionship.

Eu quis amar mas tive medo
E quis salvar meu coração
Mas o amor sabe um segredo
O medo pode matar o seu coração

Água de beber, água de beber, camará
Água de beber, água de beber, camará

Tê bá dundá
Pá tê lá dá bá dába
Tê bá dundá
Pá tê lá dá bá dába
Tê bá dundá
Dai undá

Eu nunca fiz coisa tão certa
Entrei pra escola do perdão
A minha casa vive aberta
Abri todas as portas do coração

Água de beber, água de beber, camará
Água de beber, água de beber, camará
Água de beber, água de beber, camará

Tê bá dundá
Pá tê lá dá bá dába
Tê bá dundá
Pá tê lá dá bá dába

Strange passive singing. I absolutely love it.

@lynneleeluckdowsing6654

Love this Brazilian style of singing: no overdone vocal acrobatics; simply the beauty of the human voice.
