I saw her in the rightest way
– I kite ahau i a ia i te ara tika
Looking like Anne Hathaway
– He rite Ki A Anne Hathaway
Laughing while she hit her pen
– E kata ana i a ia e patu ana i tana pene
And coughed, and coughed
– Ka maremare, ka maremare
And then she came up to my knees
– Na ka haere mai ia ki runga ki oku turi
Begging, “Baby, would you please
– Inoi, ” E Te Tamaiti, e pai ana koe
Do the things you said you’d do to me, to me?”
– Me mahi e koe nga mea i mea ai koe ki ahau, ki ahau?”
Oh, won’t you kiss me on the mouth and love me like a sailor?
– Aue, e kore koe e kihi i ahau i runga i te mangai, me te aroha ki ahau ano he kaipuke?
And when you get a taste, can you tell me, what’s my flavor?
– A, no te whiwhi koe i te reka, ka taea e koe te korero ki ahau, he aha te toku hā?
I don’t believe in God, but I believe that you’re my savior
– E kore ahau e whakapono Ki Te Atua, engari e whakapono ana ahau ko koe toku kaiwhakaora
My mom says that she’s worried, but I’m covered in this favor
– E mea ana toku whaea kei te manukanuka ia, engari kei te pai ahau ki tenei
And when we’re getting dirty, I forget all that is wrong
– A, ina poke tatou, ka wareware ahau ki nga mea katoa e he ana
I sleep so I can see you ’cause I hate to wait so long
– Ka moe ahau kia kite ai ahau i a koe, nā te mea e kino ana ahau ki te tatari roa
I sleep so I can see you, and I hate to wait so long
– E moe ana ahau kia kite ai ahau i a koe, a e kino ana ahau ki te tatari roa
She took my fingers to her mouth
– I mauria e ia oku maihao ki tona mangai
The kind of thing that makes you proud
– Ko te ahua o te mea e whakapehapeha ai koe
That nothing else had ever
– Kaore he mea ke atu
Worked out, worked out
– I mahi, i mahi
And lately, I’ve tried other things
– A, i enei ra, kua whakamatauria e au etahi atu mea
But nothing can capture the sting
– Engari kaore he mea e taea te hopu i te wero
Of the venom she’s gonna spit out right now
– O te paitini ka tuwhaina e ia i tēnei wā
Won’t you kiss me on the mouth and love me like a sailor?
– E kore koe e kihi i ahau i runga i te mangai, e aroha ki ahau ano he kaipuke?
And when you get a taste, can you tell me, what’s my flavor?
– A, no te whiwhi koe i te reka, ka taea e koe te korero ki ahau, he aha te toku hā?
I don’t believe in God, but I believe that you’re my savior
– E kore ahau e whakapono Ki Te Atua, engari e whakapono ana ahau ko koe toku kaiwhakaora
I know that you’ve been worried, but you’re dripping in my favor
– E mohio ana ahau kua manukanuka koe, engari kei te maturuturu koe ki taku manako
And when we’re getting dirty, I forget all that is wrong
– A, ina poke tatou, ka wareware ahau ki nga mea katoa e he ana
I sleep so I can see you ’cause I hate to wait so long
– Ka moe ahau kia kite ai ahau i a koe, nā te mea e kino ana ahau ki te tatari roa
I sleep so I can see you, and I hate to wait so long
– E moe ana ahau kia kite ai ahau i a koe, a e kino ana ahau ki te tatari roa
And we can run away to the walls inside your house
– A ka taea e tatou te rere atu ki nga taiepa i roto i to koutou whare
I can be the cat, baby, you can be the mouse
– Ka taea e au te ngeru, te tamaiti, ka taea e koe te kiore
And we can laugh off things that we know nothing about
– A ka taea e tātou te kata i ngā mea kāore i te mōhiotia e tātou
We can go forever until you wanna sit it out
– Ka taea e tatou te haere tonu tae noa ki te hiahia koe ki te noho i te reira i roto i
