I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanna one time see you laughing
I only wanna to hear you laugh in the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain, purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanna see you laughing in the purple rain
I never wanted to be your weekend lover
I just wanna 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 wanna see you laughing in the purple rain
Honey I know, I know, I know that times are changing
It's time we all reached out for something new and that means you too
You say you wanna be a leader, but you can't make up your mind
I think you better close, let me guide to the purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain, purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain, oh!
I only wanna see you, wanna see you in the purple rain
