[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 wanted 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 bathing in the purple rain

[Verse 2]
I never wanted to be your weekend lover, mmm
I only wanted to be some kind of friend, hey
Baby, I could never steal you from another, no no

[Pre-Chorus]
It's such a shame our friendship had to end

[Chorus]
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain (yeah, yeah)
Purple rain, purple rain, mmm
I only want to see you underneath the purple rain
[Verse 3]
Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changing (yeah, yeah)
It's time we all reach out for something new, that means you 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 the purple rain

[Chorus]
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain
Purple rain, purple rain

I only want to see you
Only want to see you in the purple rain

[Outro]
Hey
Only want to see you
Only want to see you

Wooo
Only, only want to see you in the purple rain
(Yeah yeah)
Were all, were all here together
Love ya man, be good to one another
(Yeah yeah)
No more hurt, no more pain
(Yeah yeah) (no,no,no)
Purple rain
