I never meant to
cause you
any sorrow
I never
meant to cause you
any pain
I only
wanted to one time
see you laughing
I only want to see you
laughing
in the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
purple rain, purple rain
purple rain, purple rain
I only want
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
purple rain, purple rain
purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you
underneath the
purple rain
Honey I know,
I know, I know
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
to the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
purple rain, purple rain
You know what
I'm telling
you about up here
So come on
raise your hand
I only want to see you,
only want to see you
in the purple rain
