Lyrics

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 I only want to see you laughing In the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you bathing In the purple rain I never wanted to be your weekend lover I only wanted to be some kind of friend, hey 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 Only wanted to see you underneath the purple rain Honey, I know, I know, I know times are changing 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 And I think you better close it And let me guide you to the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain, yeah Purple rain, purple rain If you know what I'm singing about up here Come on, raise your hand Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you Only want to see you in the purple rain
