Ooh, ah
– E te atua, ah
I thought that life was kind, just a state of mind
– I whakaaro ahau he pai te ora, he āhua hinengaro noa iho
Then I found you and the sun shone brightly
– Katahi ka kitea koe e ahau a ka whiti te ra
It’s like when you’re alone, just pick up the phone
– He rite ki te wā e noho mokemoke ana koe, tangohia noa te waea
I hear your voice and I don’t feel so empty
– Ka rongo au i tō reo ā kāore au i te tino kau
Ah-ah, you can do anything
– Ah-ah, ka taea e koe te mahi i tetahi mea
Ah-ah-ah
– Ah-ah-ah
‘Cause I-I-I believe in all that I can be, and I-I-I-I
– ‘No te mea e whakapono ana ahau ki nga mea katoa e taea ana e au, me ahau-I-i-i
And I-I-I-I feel like the air, now I can breathe
– A, ko te i-i-i-I te āhua o te hau, ināianei ka taea e au te manawa
And think about love, ’bout love
– A whakaaro e pā ana ki te aroha, ‘ bout love
And think about you
– A whakaaro e pā ana ki a koutou
And so we’re here again, I talk with you, my friend
– Na kei konei anō mātou, e kōrero ana ahau ki a koe, e taku hoa
Tears and fears, they fall around so gently
– He roimata, he wehi, he tino ngawari te hinga
And like the final call, we give and take it all
– Ka rite ki te karanga whakamutunga, ka hoatu e mātou, ka tangohia katoa
Then just one kiss and I don’t feel so empty
– Na kotahi noa te kihi a e kore ahau e fe pera kau
Ah-ah, you can do anything
– Ah-ah, ka taea e koe te mahi i tetahi mea
Ah-ah-ah, ah
