Purple Rain (Live in Syracuse, NY, 3/30/85)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I never meant to cause you any sorrow (Thank you) I never meant to cause you any pain I only wanted one time to see you laughing Only wanted to see you Laughing in the purple rain [Chorus] Purple (rain, purple rain) yeah 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, no no I only wanted to be some kind of friend, yea-yeah Baby baby, I could never steal you from another It's such a shame our friendship had to end [Chorus] (Somebody!) (Purple rain, purple rain) Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you, no no no no I only want to see you in the purple rain [Verse 3] Honey, I know, I know, I know, I know I know times are changing It's time we all reach out For something new, that means y'all too You say you want a leader But you can't seem to make up your mind I think you better close it-uh Think you better close it-uh And let the Lord guide you, let me guide you to the purple rain [Chorus] Say it! (Purple rain, purple rain) Everybody! It's alright Purple rain, purple rain If you know what I'm singing about raise your hands Purple rain, purple rain It's gonna be alright You say it's gonna be alright You say it's gonna be alright I only want to see you [Outro] If you want, sing along C'mon C'mon One more time everybody! Everybody now sing
