Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
I don’t know what you’re looking for
– Kaore au i te mohio he aha taau e rapu ana
You haven’t found it baby, that’s for sure
– Kāore koe i kitea he pēpi, he tino mōhio tērā
You rip me up, you spread me all around
– Ka haehae koe i ahau, ka horahia ahau e koe ki nga taha katoa
In the dust of the dead of time
– I te puehu o te hunga mate o te wā
And this is not a case of lust, you see
– A ehara tenei i te take o te hiahia, ka kite koe
It’s not a matter of you versus me
– Ehara i te mea ko koe ki ahau
It’s fine the way you want me on your own
– He pai te ara e hiahia ana koe ki ahau i runga i tou ake
But in the end it’s always me alone
– Engari i te mutunga ko au anake
And I’m losing my favorite game
– A kei te ngaro ahau i taku kēmu tino pai
You’re losing your mind again
– Kei te ngaro koe i to hinengaro ano
I’m losing my baby
– Kei te ngaro taku tamaiti
Losing my favorite game
– Te ngaro i taku kēmu tino pai
I only know what I’ve been working for
– E mohio ana ahau ki te mea kua mahi ahau mo
Another you so I could love you more
– Another you so i could love you more
I really thought that I could take you there
– I tino whakaaro ahau ka taea e au te kawe i a koe ki reira
But my experiment is not getting us anywhere
– Engari kāore taku whakamātautau i te kawe i a tātou ki hea
I had a vision I could turn you right
– He kitenga taku ka taea e au te huri tika i a koe
A stupid mission and a legal fight
– He misioni maamaa me te whawhai ture
I should have seen it when my hope was new
– Me i kite ahau i te reira i te mea he hou toku tumanako
My heart is black and my body is blue
– He pango toku ngakau he puru toku tinana
And I’m losing my favorite game
– A kei te ngaro ahau i taku kēmu tino pai
You’re losing your mind again
– Kei te ngaro koe i to hinengaro ano
I’m losing my favorite game
– Kei te ngaro ahau i taku kēmu tino pai
You’re losing your mind again
– Kei te ngaro koe i to hinengaro ano
I’m losing my baby
– Kei te ngaro taku tamaiti
Losing my favorite game
– Te ngaro i taku kēmu tino pai
I’m losing my favorite game
– Kei te ngaro ahau i taku kēmu tino pai
You’re losing your mind again
– Kei te ngaro koe i to hinengaro ano
I’ve tried
– Kua tamata ahau
I’ve tried
– Kua tamata ahau
But you’re still the same
– Ko koe tonu te taua
I’m losing my baby
– Kei te ngaro taku tamaiti
You’re losing a savior and a saint
– Kei te ngaro koe i te kaiwhakaora me te tapu
