Kupu Tūpato
Today is gonna be the day
– I tenei ra ka waiho hei ra
That they’re gonna throw it back to you
– Ka whakahokia atu e rātou ki a koe
By now, you should’ve somehow
– I tēnei wā, me whai koe i tētahi ara
Realised what you gotta do
– I mōhio koe ki tāu e mahi ai
I don’t believe that anybody
– E kore ahau e whakapono e tetahi
Feels the way I do about you now
– He aha taku e mahi nei ki a koe ināianei
Backbeat, the word is on the street
– Backbeat, ko te kupu i runga i te huarahi
That the fire in your heart is out
– Ko te ahi i roto i tou ngakau kei waho
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
– Kei te mohio ahau kua rongo koe i nga mea katoa i mua
But you never really had a doubt
– Engari kaore koe i tino ruarua
I don’t believe that anybody
– E kore ahau e whakapono e tetahi
Feels the way I do about you now
– He aha taku e mahi nei ki a koe ināianei
And all the roads we have to walk are winding
– A ko nga huarahi katoa e haere ai tatou he kopikopiko
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
– A ko nga rama katoa e arahi ana i a tatou ki reira e matapo ana
There are many things that I would like to say to you
– He maha nga mea e hiahia ana ahau ki te korero ki a koe
But I don’t know how
– Engari kaore au i te mohio me pehea
Because maybe
– No te mea pea
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
– Ko koe te mea e whakaora ana i ahau
And after all
– I muri i te katoa
You’re my wonderwall
– Ko koe taku wonderwall
Today was gonna be the day
– I tenei ra ka waiho hei ra
But they’ll never throw it back to you
– Otiia e kore ratou e maka i te reira hoki ki a koutou
By now, you should’ve somehow
– I tēnei wā, me whai koe i tētahi ara
Realised what you’re not to do
– He aha te mea kaore koe e mahi
I don’t believe that anybody
– E kore ahau e whakapono e tetahi
Feels the way I do about you now
– He aha taku e mahi nei ki a koe ināianei
And all the roads that lead you there were winding
– A ko nga huarahi katoa e arahi ana i a koe ki reira he kopikopiko
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
– A ko nga rama katoa e whakamarama ana i te ara e matapo ana
There are many things that I would like to say to you
– He maha nga mea e hiahia ana ahau ki te korero ki a koe
But I don’t know how
– Engari kaore au i te mohio me pehea
I said maybe
– Ka mea ahau tērā pea
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
– Ko koe te mea e whakaora ana i ahau
And after all
– I muri i te katoa
You’re my wonderwall
– Ko koe taku wonderwall
I said maybe (I said maybe)
– Ka mea ahau pea (ka mea ahau pea)
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
– Ko koe te mea e whakaora ana i ahau
And after all
– I muri i te katoa
You’re my wonderwall
– Ko koe taku wonderwall
I said maybe (I said maybe)
– Ka mea ahau pea (ka mea ahau pea)
You’re gonna be the one that saves me (That saves me)
– Ko koe te tangata e whakaora ana i ahau (That saves me)
You’re gonna be the one that saves me (That saves me)
– Ko koe te tangata e whakaora ana i ahau (That saves me)
You’re gonna be the one that saves me (That saves me)
– Ko koe te tangata e whakaora ana i ahau (That saves me)
