Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
Mmm, mmm, mmm
– Mmm, mmm, mmm
Flowers in hand, waiting for me
– Nga putiputi kei te ringa, e tatari ana ki ahau
Every word in poetry
– Nga kupu katoa i roto i te poetry
Won’t call me by name, only “baby”
– E kore e karanga ahau i te ingoa, anake “baby”
The more that you give, the less that I need
– Ko te nui ake o te tuku, ko te iti ake o te hiahia
Everyone says I look happy
– E mea ana te katoa he harikoa ahau
When it feels right
– Ki te tika
I know that you’re wrong for me
– E mohio ana ahau kei te he koe ki ahau
Gonna wish we never met on the day I leave
– E hiahia ana ahau kia kaua rawa mātou e tūtaki i te rā e haere atu ai au
I brought you down to your knees
– I kawea koe e ahau ki raro ki o koutou turi
‘Cause they say that misery loves company
– ‘No te mea e mea ana ratou e aroha ana te pouri ki te kamupene
It’s not your fault I ruin everything
– Ehara i te mea ko to he ka whakangaro ahau i nga mea katoa
And it’s not your fault I can’t be what you need
– A ehara i te mea ko to he kaore e taea e au te mea e hiahia ana koe
Baby, angels like you can’t fly down hell with me
– E nga anahera, e kore e taea e koe te rere ki raro i te reinga ki ahau
I’m everything they said I would be
– Ko nga mea katoa i mea ai ratou ka waiho ahau
La-la-la
– Ko te-la-la
I’m everything they said I would be
– Ko nga mea katoa i mea ai ratou ka waiho ahau
I’ll put you down slow, love you goodbye
– Ka waiho koe e ahau ki raro puhoi, aroha ki a koutou goodbye
Before you let go, just one more time
– I mua i to tuku atu, kotahi noa atu te waa
Take off your clothes, pretend that it’s fine
– Tangohia atu o koutou kakahu, me te mea he pai
A little more hurt won’t kill you
– He iti ake te mamae e kore e whakamate i a koe
Tonight, mother says, “You don’t look happy”
– I tēnei pō, ka mea a māmā, “Kāore Koe i te ahuareka”
Close your eyes
– Kati ō kanohi
I know that you’re wrong for me
– E mohio ana ahau kei te he koe ki ahau
Gonna wish we never met on the day I leave
– E hiahia ana ahau kia kaua rawa mātou e tūtaki i te rā e haere atu ai au
I brought you down to your knees
– I kawea koe e ahau ki raro ki o koutou turi
‘Cause they say that misery loves company
– ‘No te mea e mea ana ratou e aroha ana te pouri ki te kamupene
It’s not your fault I ruin everything
– Ehara i te mea ko to he ka whakangaro ahau i nga mea katoa
And it’s not your fault I can’t be what you need
– A ehara i te mea ko to he kaore e taea e au te mea e hiahia ana koe
Baby, angels like you can’t fly down hell with me
– E nga anahera, e kore e taea e koe te rere ki raro i te reinga ki ahau
I’m everything they said I would be
– Ko nga mea katoa i mea ai ratou ka waiho ahau
I know that you’re wrong for me
– E mohio ana ahau kei te he koe ki ahau
Gonna wish we never met on the day I leave

And it’s not your fault I can’t be what you need

– E nga anahera, e kore e taea e koe te rere ki raro i te reinga ki ahau, oh
Angels like you can’t fly down hell with me
– Anahera rite e kore e taea e koe te rere ki raro i te reinga ki ahau
