Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
Oh, I can’t leave, but I can’t be in this place
– Aue, e kore e taea e ahau te haere, engari e kore e taea e ahau i roto i tenei wahi
This must all be an illusion skipping frames
– Me waiho katoa tēnei hei whakaraerae e peke ana i ngā anga
Years of living with a cold and empty space
– Tau o te ora ki te wāhi matao, me te kau
And it haunts me every time I think I’m safe
– A ka whakawehi i ahau i nga wa katoa e whakaaro ana ahau he haumaru ahau
Do you feel love?
– Kei te aroha koe?
I know I don’t
– E mohio ana ahau e kore ahau e
With no one to hold
– Kaore he tangata hei pupuri
Do you feel love, love, love?
– Eel koe i te aroha, te aroha, te aroha?
Do you feel love?
– Kei te aroha koe?
When you’re alone
– I a koe anake
Do you feel at home?
– Kei te noho koe ki te kāinga?
Do you feel love, love, love?
– Eel koe i te aroha, te aroha, te aroha?
Do you feel—
– Eel koe—
Like a frenzy, like an ocean overflowed
– He rite ki te haurangi, he rite ki te moana e rere ana
This must all be just an accident at most
– Me tika tenei katoa he aituā i te nuinga
Oh, I’m changing, and I feel more like a ghost
– Aue, kei te huri ahau, a ka nui ake taku ahua hei wairua
Like a specter in your headlights on the road
– Ka rite ki te wairua i roto i o koutou rama i runga i te huarahi
Do you feel love?
– Kei te aroha koe?
I know I don’t
– E mohio ana ahau e kore ahau e
With no one to hold
– Kaore he tangata hei pupuri
Do you feel love, love, love?
– Eel koe i te aroha, te aroha, te aroha?
Do you feel love?
– Kei te aroha koe?
When you’re alone
– I a koe anake
Do you feel at home?
– Kei te noho koe ki te kāinga?
Do you feel love, love, love?
– Eel koe i te aroha, te aroha, te aroha?
Do you feel love?
– Kei te aroha koe?
Something you’re missing made you who you were
– Ko tētahi mea e ngaro ana koe i hanga i a koe ko wai koe
‘Cause I’ve kept my distance, it just made it worse
– ‘Na te mea kua noho tawhiti ahau, kua kino ake
But I’ve learned to live with the way that it hurts
– Engari kua ako ahau ki te noho ki te huarahi e mamae ana
Something you’re missing made you who you were
– Ko tētahi mea e ngaro ana koe i hanga i a koe ko wai koe
‘Cause I’ve kept my distance, it just made it worse
– ‘Na te mea kua noho tawhiti ahau, kua kino ake
But I’ve learned to live with the way that it hurts
– Engari kua ako ahau ki te noho ki te huarahi e mamae ana
Do you feel love?
– Kei te aroha koe?
I know I don’t
– E mohio ana ahau e kore ahau e
With no one to hold
– Kaore he tangata hei pupuri
Do you feel love, love, love?
– Eel koe i te aroha, te aroha, te aroha?
Do you feel love?
– Kei te aroha koe?
I know I don’t
– E mohio ana ahau e kore ahau e
With no one to hold
– Kaore he tangata hei pupuri
Do you feel love, love, love, love?
– Eel koe i te aroha, te aroha, te aroha, te aroha?
