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
-je n’ai jamais eu l’intention / chagrin, tristesse
-de la douleur
-te voir rire une fois
Purple rain Purple rain
Purple rain Purple rain
Purple rain Purple rain
I only want to see you bathing in the purple rain
-te laver / baigner
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
-ton amant d’un week-end
-une sorte d’ami
-je ne pourrais jamais te voler à quelqu’un
d’autre
It's such a shame our friendship had to end
-c’est tellement dommage que notre amitié
ait dû prendre fin
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, I know times are changing
It's time we all reach out for something new
That means you too
You say you want a leader
But you can't seem to make up your mind
I think you(‘d) better close it
And let me guide you to the purple rain
-sous
-chérie
- il est grand temps que nous atteignions / allions
vers quelque chose de nouveau
-cela veut dire
tu ne sembles pas savoir te décider
je pense que tu ferais mieux de le fermer (=
arrêter d’y penser)
laisse-moi te guider / amener
Purple rain Purple rain
Purple rain Purple rain
If you know what I'm singing about up here
C'mon raise your hand
Purple rain Purple rain
I only want to see you, only want to see you
In the purple rain
de quoi je chante là-haut (= sur la scène)
allez, levez la main
