A Lovers Concerto (How Gentle is the Rain) The Supremes lyrics: How gentle is the rain
That falls softly on the meadow
Birds high up in the trees
Serenade the flowers with their melodies
Oh, see there beyond the hill
The bright colours of the rainbow
Some magic from above
Made this day for us just to fall in love
Now I belong to you
From this day until forever
Just love me tenderly
And I'll give to you every part of me
Oh, don't ever make me cry
Through long lonely nights without love
Be always true to me
Keep this day in your heart eternally
Someday we shall return
To this place upon the meadow
We'll walk out in the rain
Hear the birds above singing once again
You'll hold me in your arms
And say once again you love me
And if your love is true
Everything will be just as wonderful
You'll hold me in your arms
And say once again you love me
And if your love is true
Everything will be just as wonderful
Just hold me in your arms
And say once again you love me
And if your love is true
Everything will be just as wonderful
You'll hold me in your arms
And say once again you love me
And if your love is true
Everything will be just as wonderful
"How gentle is the rain" is the first line of the hit record "A Lover's Concerto," by the American pop group, the Toys. It was based on the Minuet in G from Johann Sebastian Bach's "Notebook for Anna Magdalena Bach." It is now thought Bach borrowed the melody from an earlier composer, Christian Petzold. Borrowing melodies was fairly common practice in early music, the actual melody being less important than what was done with it.

What is the song with lyrics how gentle is the rain that falls softly on the meadow?
It is "Lover's Concerto" by The Supremes, also known as "How Gentle Is The Rain". It was originally recorded by the 60's group "The Toys" in 1965. It is based on a piano study for beginners called "Minuet in G Major, BWV Anh. 114", from the "Notebook for Ana Magdalena Bach". The study is sometimes attributed to Johann Sebastian Bach, though the notebook was left open for visiting composer's contributions and this one was likely composed by Christian Petzold . The time signature of the original was 3/4 (a minuet), and the Supremes' version is changed to 4/4, which makes the melody a little different. The Supremes' recording includes a snippet of the original in the intro for comparison.
