Kupu Tūpato
What the hell you talking about, love?
– He aha te reinga e korero ana koe, aroha?
I thought I was doing this for us
– I whakaaro ahau kei te mahi ahau i tēnei mō mātou
You know I just played my part
– E mōhio ana koe i tākaro noa ahau i taku tūranga
You said if you leave me for that world
– Ka mea koe ki te whakarere koe i ahau mo taua ao
I won’t be here when you return
– Kāore au e noho ki konei ina hoki mai koe
But can we just go back to start?
– Engari ka taea e tatou te hoki ki te tīmata?
Just hold me and say
– Kia mau ki ahau, ka mea
You’re not leaving this way
– Kāore koe e haere atu i tēnei ara
‘Cause I’m about to lose my mind
– ‘No te mea ka ngaro taku whakaaro
This mess that I made
– Ko tēnei raruraru I mahia e au
Don’t you say it’s too late
– E kore koe e mea he mutunga rawa
Can I die in your arms one last time?
– Ka taea e au te mate i roto i o ringaringa mo te wa whakamutunga?
‘Cause all my mistakes
– ‘Nā aku hapa katoa
They led me straight into you
– I arahina ahau e rātau ki roto tonu i a koe
Remember you said to me regret is for fools
– Kia mahara i mea mai koe ki ahau he mea pouri mo nga kuware
Been crashing and burning like I always do
– Kua hinga, kua tahuna, pērā i taku mahi i ngā wā katoa
But all my mistakes
– Engari ko aku hapa katoa
They led me straight into you
– I arahina ahau e rātau ki roto tonu i a koe
Yeah, they led me to you
– Ae, i arahina ahau e ratou ki a koe
It’s like losing everything on a bad bet
– He rite ki te ngaro i nga mea katoa i runga i te peti kino
I’ve lost everything but my habits
– Kua ngaro katoa ahau engari ko aku tikanga
I fall so easily
– He tino ngāwari taku hinga
Feels like going right when you should’ve gone left
– Ka rite ki te haere tika ina kua haere koe ki te maui
Or the memories I wish I could forget
– Ranei nga maharatanga e hiahia ana ahau kia wareware ahau
But they’re never leaving me
– Engari kāore rātou e whakarere i ahau
Just hold me and say
– Kia mau ki ahau, ka mea
You’re not leaving this way
– Kāore koe e haere atu i tēnei ara
‘Cause I’m about to lose my mind
– ‘No te mea ka ngaro taku whakaaro
This mess that I made
– Ko tēnei raruraru I mahia e au
Don’t you say it’s too late

But all my mistakes
– Engari ko aku hapa katoa
They led me straight into you
– I arahina ahau e rātau ki roto tonu i a koe
I messed up like I do
– I pōhēhē ahau pērā i ahau
But regret is for fools
– Engari ko te pouri mo nga kuware
Now I praise my mistakes
– Na e whakamoemiti ana ahau ki aku hapa
‘Cause they led me to you
– ‘No te mea i arahina ahau e ratou ki a koe
I messed up like I do
– I pōhēhē ahau pērā i ahau
But regret is for fools
– Engari ko te pouri mo nga kuware
Now I praise my mistakes
– Na e whakamoemiti ana ahau ki aku hapa
