Kupu Tūpato
You know where my house is, you know where my bar is
– E mōhio ana koe kei hea tōku whare, e mōhio ana koe kei hea tōku pae
You know where that field to park to drink and watch the stars is
– E mōhio ana koe kei hea taua mara hei whakatā hei inu hei mātakitaki hoki i ngā whetū
You know where my mom lives, that no trespass pond is
– E mōhio ana koe ki te wāhi e noho ana toku māmā, kāore he roto takahi
You know where to find me but the problem is
– E mohio ana koe ki te wahi e kitea ai ahau engari ko te raruraru
Anywhere you find me, yeah, I’ll be missin’
– I nga wahi katoa e kitea ana e koe, ae, ka ngaro ahau
The part of my heart that keeps me from runnin’ away
– Ko te wahi o toku ngakau e kore ai ahau e rere atu
Anywhere you find me, yeah, I’ll be wishin’
– I nga wahi katoa e kitea ana e koe, ae, ka hiahia ahau
That I had the thing that seems to make most people stay
– I ahau te mea e te mea ki te hanga i te nuinga o te iwi noho
Maybe I’m missin’ the point
– Tērā pea kei te ngaro ahau i te take
Maybe I’m missin’ a piece
– Tērā pea kei te ngaro ahau i tētahi wāhanga
Maybe I’m missin’ the girl I actually want missin’ me
– Akene kei te mihi ahau ki te kotiro e hiahia ana ahau ki te mihi ki ahau
Kinda like the Jack in this glass I’m sippin’
– Kinda rite Te Jack i roto i tenei karaihe ahau sippin’
Anywhere you find me, yeah, I’ll be missin’
– I nga wahi katoa e kitea ana e koe, ae, ka ngaro ahau
Girls say they like it, that I’m hard to read
– E mea ana ngā kōtiro e pai ana rātou, he uaua ki ahau te pānui
‘Til I say goodbye and they all watch me leave
– ‘Ki te mea atu ahau kia ora, ka mātakitaki katoa rātou i ahau e haere ana
I make up a reason, the makeup starts runnin’
– He take taku, ka tīmata te whakapaipai ki te rere
I don’t know what it is but I’m sure missin’ something ’cause
– Kāore au i te mōhio he aha, engari e tino mōhio ana au kei te ngaro tētahi mea i te take
Anywhere you find me, yeah, I’ll be missin’
– I nga wahi katoa e kitea ana e koe, ae, ka ngaro ahau
The part of my heart that keeps me from runnin’ away
– Ko te wahi o toku ngakau e kore ai ahau e rere atu
Anywhere you find me, yeah, I’ll be wishin’
– I nga wahi katoa e kitea ana e koe, ae, ka hiahia ahau

– Kinda rite Te Jack i roto i tenei karaihe ahau sippin’
Anywhere you find me, yeah, I’ll be missin’
– I nga wahi katoa e kitea ana e koe, ae, ka ngaro ahau
Like some ghost in a bar
– Ka rite ki ētahi wairua i roto i te pae
They all know me by name
– E mohio ana ratou katoa ki ahau i runga i te ingoa
No one’s home in my heart
– Kāore he tangata i roto i toku ngakau
Guess I’m here but I ain’t
– Ki taku whakaaro kei konei ahau engari kaore au
Anywhere you find me, yeah, I’ll be missin’
– I nga wahi katoa e kitea ana e koe, ae, ka ngaro ahau
The part of my heart that keeps me from runnin’ away
– Ko te wahi o toku ngakau e kore ai ahau e rere atu
