Why do you wanna dance when you hear "Gotta Broken Heart Again" and "Purple Rain"? Do you get pleasure from Prince's pain? sad

The sun set in the west this mornin'
4 I know, I know L.A. is callin'
Bad news, Steve said, and people are talkin'
They say your kingdom is fallin', yeah
They say U lost your fire
When another musician U hired
Little do they know, U wouldn't have passed go
Unless they could take U higher, yeah

The sun set in my heart this afternoon
4 2 friends of mine got stuck in the snow
In Uptown when winter's alarmin', oh
Cocaine becomes charmin'
But U talk about things U don't know 'bout
I know, no matter how pleasant your past was
Green and white return 2 blue
U're happy as long as your last buzz
And then U think U want something new, yeah

The sun, the sun set in my mind this evening
4 someone who said they would die 4 me
Sold some, they sold some more pictures and all my little memories
Chump change is 2 unravel the mystery, ah ha
But life is no fun, life ain't no fun without fantasy
Some things are better left unsaid
And some people are better left untrusted
Maybe, maybe, maybe it'll all make sense when I'm dead
When I'm dead

Old friends 4 sale
Get'em while the gettin' is hot
Watch out, they'll kiss U until they get what U got
And they'll show U the friends that they're not
Old friends 4 sale

I dont consider Prince a great lyricist, but sometimes he can write lines or verses that are touching, witty or just plain funny. So i see 'moving' in a broader way then sad or emotional.

His best lyric in my opinion is still "If i was your girlfriend". I always thought on the Camille-lyrics he did sound more mature and as a real person then on most of his 'normal' material. This song is the best of that bunch in my opinion: expressing a strong longing for empathy and intimacy, but also showing the lonelieness and the despair behind the longing.

Apart from that it has my favorite songline by him:

"Lets try to imagine what silence looks like"

Pure brilliance in my opinion, almost like some buddhistic koan.

I Wonder U. It sounds like an expression of love delivered in a foreign language to a person you've just met and have no proper means of communication with.

Poor Little Bastard - this unreleased outtake similar in sound to Damn U is one of the most moving and emotional songs Prince has done.

I always liked the lyrics to "Dolphin"....It reminds me of the relationship that I have with my dad.
