By the time that train came rumbling past the church yard, we were singing at the top of our voices. If some of the screams reached our ears, we'd just sing a little louder until we could hear them no more. Years have passed and no one talks about it much anymore, but I still hear that train whistle in my sleep. I can still hear them crying out for help.

Prince apparently looks at purple as more than a color or symbol of royalty, but as a sign of divinity and salvation: i.e purpose. In this fashion, the purple banana in combination with all the other lyrics of the song is his metaphorical quest for a higher purpose in life.The song seems to focus on life's imperfection as an absolute, and how he will not let that deter his quest for verve and optimism.rince apparently looks at purple as more than a color or symbol of royalty, but as a sign of divinity and salvation: i.e purpose.
