Prince Writing Challenge Songs Journal

Purple Rain

Purple Rain. I have always loved this song. I saw Prince's movie "Purple Rain" and I fell in love with him and his music and songs.

The girls I worked with liked him, too. My one friend Darla carried his album to work and she just loved him. Sadly, she married a biker who isn't very nice to her. I would like to help her but I am afraid of her mean biker husband. Maybe some purple acid rain could fall on him.

I never meant to cause you any problems. I never meant to cause you any pain. I only want to see you laughing in the purple rain. If I ever hurt anybody as I have going through life, I am sorry.

I watched "Purple Rain" again last night and cried over the ending like I always do. Prince is dead now and I guess this makes it worse for me. I love watching him ride his motorcycle and I think he was sad in real life and this song seems to be about his life. I have met people who aren't Prince fans but they like this song. My mother likes this song.

I watched this movie on dish at my father-in-law's house 4 times. He didn't mind. He said Prince had some weird dressing styles. My father-in-law died eight years ago. I miss him.

Purple Rain. I wonder what this song is about. It could be about loving someone you can't have. I could never steal you from another. Maybe it's regretting that you hurt someone. I know. I know. It will drive you crazy. I have problems that seem to drive me crazy. This song can relax you or make you sad. I think Prince would want you to enjoy life. When it rains, I don't get sad. I love purple but purple rain wouldn't be normal. I will think of Prince in a good light and laugh and smile. Thank you for the music, Prince Nelson Rogers.
