I never meant to cause to 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
I only wanted to see you laughing 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
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 to
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
Until the purple rain
Purple rain
Purple rain.
I only want to see you
Only wanted to see you
In the purple rain
