I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only want one time to see you laughing
I only wanna see you laughing in the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanna see you bathing in the purple rain

I never wanted to be your weekend lover
I only wanted to be some kind of friend, yeah
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 underneath the purple rain

Honey, I know, I know times are changing
It's time we all reach out for something new
And let me guide you to the purple rain

Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only wanna see you dancing in the purple rain
