Your crying... for the one you love
Your dying... because you had enough

And no one understands, what you're going through.
They don't really understand you.
They tell you to get up, but you keep on falling down.
You run out to the rain so no one sees you crying. You hide what you feel
But baby I know,

If you tears were purple,
everyone could see your pain.
That's why your tears are not purple,
but just like the rain.
Because, if you cried purple tears
we could all see your shame.
Be glad your tears are not purple,
but the color of the rain.

Your tears running down your face.
Everyone just thinks it's the rain.
You smile, so nobody thinks your in distress.
But I know, better.
I know better than that.

If you tears were purple,
everyone could see your pain.
That's why your tears are not purple,
but just like the rain.
Because, if you cried purple tears
we could all see your shame.
Be glad your tears are not purple,
but the color of the rain.

Why don't you want anyone to see your pain? You open your eyes in the rain,
but baby that does not get rid of your heart break.

If you tears were purple,
everyone could see your pain.
That's why your tears are not purple,
but just like the rain.
Because, if you cried purple tears
we could all see your shame.
Be glad your tears are not purple,
but the color of the rain.

Because, if your tears were purple.
