[Verse 1]
I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted to one time to see you laughing
I only wanted to see you
Laughing in that purple rain

[Chorus]
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you
Bathing in the 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
It's such a shame our friendship had to end

[Chorus]
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purplе rain
Purple rain, purple rain
I only want to see you
Undernеath the purple rain
[Interlude]

[Bridge]
(Hoo-hoo-hoo
La-la-ha-la-la
Hoo-hoo-hoo-wah)
I only want to see you
Underneath the purple rain

[Outro]
Underneath the purple rain
Underneath the purple rain
Ahh-aah
I only want to see you
Underneath your purple rain
(Ahh-aah-woah
Ooh-ooh-yeah
Ooh-ooh-aah-aah)
I only want to see you
Underneath your purple rain
Be my friend
I wanted to be some kind of friend (ooh-ooh)
Be my friend (ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

[Instrumental]
