Did this song inspire Purple rain?

Its been spoken about before of Prince's teenage years and the kinda music the stations in Minneapolis played.The 70's band America and their song Ventura Highway mentions the words Purple Rain in the lyrics I've always thought that line in the song may have been the possible inspiration for his song.Any thoughts or comments?
