I never meant to cause you any sorrow
Never meant to cause you any pain
Only wanted one time to see you laughin'
I only want to see you laughin' 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 love
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, the times are changin'
It's time we all reach out for something new
And 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
Purple rain, purple rain
I want to see you, I want to see you
In the purple rain
(Purple rain)
(Purple rain)
I never meant to hurt you, baby (purple rain)
(Purple rain)
(Purple rain)
(Purple rain)
Honey, I know, I know, I know
It's a shame
(Only want to see you laughing)
(Only want to see you laughing)
In the purple rain
(Purple rain)
(Purple rain)
(Purple rain)
Want to see you laughing in the purple rain
(Purple rain)
(Purple rain)
(Purple rain)
In the purple rain
