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 laughing 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
And baby I could never steal you from another, no, no
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 seem to make up your mind
I think you better close it and let me guide you to
To the purple rain

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

Just want to see you laughing in the purple rain
Just wanna hear you laughing in the purple rain
Just want to hear you laughing in the purple rain
I only wanna hear you laughing
I  only wanna hear you laughing in the purple rain
