We overcame, changin' lanes
Colored lights, bright and yellow-blue
Show me the love, feelin' numb
Tracks are gone, I'm in two
You dreamed a little black, dreamed a little white
A splash of colored paint won't do
So we played the pain and took a walk away
And sewed our halves back in two
If I only knew, be Superwoman to you
We coulda quit the pain, and sooner overcame
No purple rain for you

So don't you change
Don't (If I could tell you)
So don't you change (Change)
Oh, baby
Don't (If I could tell you)
Don't

You're so contagious
Like falling embers you flew
Out into orbit, now I can't absorb it
The starlight your eyes do
For all we couldn't know
The past we should've grown
Kingdom and a throne, all jewels
But the cracks were paved, still all the hope remained
And purple rain came through

So don't you change
Don't (If I could tell you)
So don't you change (Change)
Oh, baby
Don't (If I could tell you)
Don't

Darling just remain the same
Don't let me fade away
We can't have it all
You build and I fall
So it goes
Holdin' on's kinda fake
Purple gold, purple rain
We can't have it all
No, no, no, no, no, no

Don't you change, no
Don't (If I could tell you)
Don't you change (Change)
Don't let, don't let nobody change you
Don't you let, don't you let them change you, no (If I could tell you)
Don't, don't let, don't let nobody change you (If I could tell you)
Don't you
