I never meant 2 cause u any sorrow
I never meant 2 cause u any pain
I only wanted 2 one time see u laughing
I only wanted 2 see u laughing in the purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
I only wanted 2 see u bathing in the purple rain
I never wanted 2 be your weekend lover
I only wanted 2 be some kind of friend
Baby I could never steal u from another
Its such a shame our friendship had 2 end
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
I only wanted 2 see u underneath the purple rain
Honey I know, I know, I know times are changing
Its time we all reach out 4 something new
That means u 2
U say u want a leader
But u cant seem 2 make up your mind
I think u better close it
And let me guide u 2 the purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
Purple rain purple rain
If you know what Im singing about up here
Cmon raise your hand
Purple rain purple rain
I only want 2 see u, only want 2 see u
