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.
'I only want 2 see U in the purple rain' means something like 'I wanna see U in a world after the war/ judgement day'...

Prince, Standing Out in the Rain. But as noted above, the term purple rain belongs to more than one generation. It was brought to the fore by another, later, rock star. It is the name of the title song of his most popular album as well as the movie that was made about his life.he meaning of words and phrases in modern culture seem fragmented. This may be because of the wide array of media and the tendency of different generations to channel themselves into the cultural media streams of their own generation.
