A hopeless romantic all my life
– He aroha kore i toku ora katoa
Surrounded by couples all the time
– E karapotia ana e ngā tokorua i ngā wā katoa
I guess I should take it as a sign
– Ki taku whakaaro me tango e au hei tohu
(Oh why, oh why, oh why, oh why?)
– (He aha, he aha, he aha, he aha?)
I’m feeling lonely (lonely)
– Kei te noho mokemoke ahau (lonely)
Oh, I wish I’d find a lover that could hold me (hold me)
– Aue, e hiahia ana ahau kia kitea e ahau he hoa aroha e taea te pupuri i ahau (kia mau ki ahau)
Now, I’m crying in my room
– Na, kei te tangi ahau i roto i toku ruma
So skeptical of love (say what you say, but I want it more)
– He nui te whakaaro ki te aroha (me kii atu koe, engari e hiahia ana ahau kia nui ake)
But still, I want it more, more, more
– Engari, e hiahia ana ahau kia nui ake, kia nui ake, kia nui ake
I gave a second chance to Cupid
– I hoatu e ahau he whai wāhitanga tuarua ki A Cupid
But now, I’m left here feeling stupid
– Engari inaianei, kua mahue ahau i konei e whakaaro ana he kuware ahau
Oh, the way he makes me feel
– Aue, te ara e hanga e ia fe ahau
That love isn’t real
– Ko te aroha ehara i te mea pono
Cupid is so dumb
– He tino wahangu a kupero
I look for his arrows every day
– Ka rapu au i ana pere i ia rā
I guess he got lost or flew away
– Ki taku whakaaro i ngaro ia i rere atu rānei
Waiting around is a waste (waste)
– Te tatari a tawhio noa ko te ururua (ururua)
Been counting the days since November
– Kua tatau i ngā rā mai i whiringa ā nuku
Is loving as good as they say?
– He aroha rite pai rite mea ratou?
Now I’m so lonely (lonely)
– Na ko ahau na mokemoke(mokemoke)
Oh, I wish I’d find a lover that could hold me (hold me)
– Aue, e hiahia ana ahau kia kitea e ahau he hoa aroha e taea te pupuri i ahau (kia mau ki ahau)
Now I’m crying in my room

Hopeless girl is seeking
– Kei te rapu te kotiro Hopeless
Someone who will share this feeling
– Te tangata e faaite i tenei mana’o
I’m a fool
– He wairangi ahau
A fool for love, a fool for love
