(Jet passes over at airport)
ALLI: It’s so cold here this time of year!
DRIVER: Welcome back to Minneapolis, Ms. Nelson!
ALLI: The Purple City!
VOICE OF PRINCE: Are ya’ll ready? (applause)
Hey Purple City!
I hope u don’t forget me
I’m a million miles below my father’s shadow
Just 7 years old
My heart dropped when I was told
I was cryin’ purple teardrops
On my paisley pillow
If he were here today
I know that he would say
“Just wipe those tears away!” and
“Just keep tryin’ 2 make it right
Don’t let ‘еm treat u like a fool
Take my hand and hold it tight
May Hеaven’s eyes watch over u”
“Just keep tryin’ 2 make it right
Don’t let ‘em treat u like a fool
Take my hand and hold it tight
May Heaven’s eyes watch over u”
Hey Purple City!
I hope u don’t forget me
I’m a million miles below my father’s shadow
Just 7 years old
My heart dropped when I was told
I was cryin’ purple teardrops
On my paisley pillow
The other day at a stadium
As the band began to play
We heard a voice in a heavenly glow
It said…
“Just keep tryin’ 2 make it right
Don’t let ‘em treat u like a fool
Take my hand and hold it tight
May Heaven’s eyes watch over u”
Hey Purple City!
