{Verse 1}
I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted one time to see you laughing
{Pre-Chorus}
I only want to see you
Laughing in the purple rain
{Chorus}
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you
Laughing in that purple rain
{Verse 2}
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
{Pre-Chorus}
It's such a shame our friendship had to end
{Chorus}
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purplе rain, purple rain
I only want to see you
Underneath that purplе rain
{Verse 3}
Honey, I know, I know
I know times are changing
It's time we all reach out
For something new, that means {?} do too
You say you want a leader
But you can't seem to make up your mind
{Pre-Chorus}
I think you better close it
And let me guide you to that purple rain
{Chorus}
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you
In that purple rain
Ahh!
