I used to think I lived to be in love But what I had to give Was not enough Now you look into the mirror And you'll see The reflection of just how Our love used to be And love we had it all We wanted even more We've learned more We don't have to look for love It's knockin' at our door I said let's take it slow But you didn't care What was to be our future Is now our past And I am the best that you will find We we're both the best we left behind And love we had it all We wanted even more We've learned more And I know we'd trade it all To be in love once more Like before We didn't have to look for love The search is over It's closer than before We don't have to look for love It's knockin' at our door

From the moment the lights went off Everything had changed Lie awake in an empty room In my head it all feels the same Like the taste of the day you left That still lingers on my breath And the dampness of tears that left The stain where you had wept All alone with the negligee That still hangs off of my bed I keep meaning to give it away But I just leave it there instead No need to cry about it I cannot live without it Every time I wind up back at your door Why do you do this to me? You penetrate right through me Every time I wind up back at your door 3 more days til I see your face I'm afraid it's far too much Cook a meal and fix up the place Dial your number, hang it up If I took you for granted I apologize for acting tough You're my reason for living And there's no way I'm giving up, oh Don't need to cry about it I cannot live without it Every time I wind up back at your door Why do you do this to me? You penetrate right through me Every time I wind up back at your door Now every evening is a bitter fight And I'm eating home alone on a Friday night And I know what your friends say "He's just wasting your love and time" I will never let you change your mind No need to cry about it I cannot live without it Every time I wind up back at your door Why do you do this to me? You penetrate right through me Every time I wind up back at your door No need to cry about it I may just die without it Every time I wind up back at your door Why do you do this to me? You penetrate right through me Every time I wind up back at your door Every time I wind up back at your door Every time I wind up back at your door

Let's go to that place where I took you last summer before the fall Where the sky was purple and we drank from the bottle We felt it all By the lighthouse on the hill, we opened a door to a different world Leaving everything behind Just you and I Open up your eyes I wish that I could stay here all my life Just you and I sitting under purple skies Let's go to that place where I took you last summer on top of the hill Where the path was golden as it led to the ocean Quiet and still By the lighthouse on the hill, we opened a door to a different world Leaving everything behind Just you and I Open up your eyes I wish that I could stay here all my life Just you and I sitting under purple skies I wish that I could stay here all my life Just you and I sitting under purple skies I wish that I could stay here all my life Just you and I sitting under purple skies There is a place nothing compares to but we only know With a meaning so special A place that was meant for more than we know By the lighthouse on the hill, we opened a door to a different world Leaving everything behind Just you and I Open up your eyes

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 Baby, I could never steal you from another, oh no Such a shame our friendship had to end Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you underneath the purple rain Honey, I know, I know times are wasted It's time we all reach out for something new and that means you too You say you want a leader but you can't seem to make up your mind I think you better close it, well, let me guide you to the purple rain Purple rain, purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain Purple rain, purple rain I only want to see you underneath the purple rain
