I never meant to cause you any sorrow.
I never meant to cause you any pain.
I only wanted one time to see you laughing.
I only want to see you laughing in the purple rain.
Purple rain, purple rain. (3x)
I only wanted to see you bathing in the purple rain.
I never wanted to be your weekend lover.
I only wanted to be some kind of friend.
Baby I could never steal you from another.
It's such a shame our friendship had to end.
Purple rain, purple rain. (3x)
I only want to see you underneath the purple rain.
Honey I know,
I know the times are changing.
It's time we all reach out for something new.
That means you too.
You say you want a leader,
But you can't seem to make up your mind.
I think you better close it,
And let me guide you in the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain. (3x)
I only want to see you underneath the purple rain.
Purple rain, purple rain. (3x)
I only want to see you laughing in the purple rain.
