the chorus goes like this..... "Wishin' on a falling star Waitin' for the early train Sorry boy, but I've been hit by purple rain Aw, come on, Joe, you can always Change your name Thanks a lot, son, just the same" is it a coincidence that our man even changed his name too? I love this I'm gonna look it up!! 
Im sorry i made a mistake.Its a verse,not the chorus.  Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

SoulAlive said: purplerein said: it's said that after the detonation of an atomic bomb, a purple rain falls from the sky.
my feeling is that Prince at one point in his life had a fear of a nuclear weapon being used on the united states (Ronnie talk to Russia..."mommy, why does everyone have a bomb)...and he wanted to make sure he survived...  so,the "purple rain" is a symbol of survival? If you live to see the rain,then you survived the atomic bomb attack...
I only want to see you laughing in the purple rain I think I finally get it now! I could also be a metephor for those who rein or "oversee" the country and it's citizens. The lyric, "Only want to see you, laughing in the purple rein" could mean, eventhough things are rough right now, laugh. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" |

I have to come with my oppinion once again - cause I´m quite sure I´m right!
It´s the light on a stage that´s "Purple rain". I think u call it limelight in english. Haven´t any of u noticed that while performing? Also it illustrates very well, that all Prince want´s is to see Appolonia performing on stage once -> "I only want to see u bathing in the purple rain!" Whatsyasay? Kirs E Listen for u naked I would dance a ballet.... | |

AndGodCreatedWoman1 said: What's the meaning of purple rain and the color purple?
Purple represents royalty ...and anyone of royalty wore that color .. (Kings, Queens, Princes, .. wear it) "Rain" is an innuendo ..hidden meaning...probably he meant "Reign" ..thus he put "Rain"..  | |

another theory, according to www.answers.com..
The emotional lyrics have multiple meanings; on the surface, they seem to be an apology from one lover to another, though on a deeper level, they become more of a spiritual allegory. It is a theory that "Purple Rain" is a metaphor for heaven, inspired by the testimonies of a woman who died on the operating table that the afterlife is full of falling purple rain. Bob Dylan once comented that Purple Rain was better than "the entire output of [[Michael Jackson]'s career". | |

Off of anothr website, I once heard something that heaven was said to be filled with purple rain. So from that he could be trying to say he wants them to have salvation, or just be free from any hurt, etc. Steve Martin~"Where did Prince go?"
Beyonce~"Prince is looking into his magical mirror of relfection." *Gotta love SNL | |
