Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
I’ve been thinking
– Kua whakaaro ahau
That I got no idea what you’re thinking
– Kāore au i te mōhio he aha tō whakaaro
Are you happy? Are you sad?
– He harikoa koe? He pouri koe?
Are you always gonna hate me for that night in Tokyo?
– Ka kino tonu koe ki ahau i Taua pō i Tokyo?
When it ended, I kinda hoped that it’d be open-ended
– I te mutunga, i tumanako ahau kia tuwhera te mutunga
But you never looked back
– Engari kaore koe i titiro whakamuri
Well, I guess you can’t hold on to something once you let it go
– Ki taku whakaaro kaore e taea e koe te pupuri i tetahi mea i te wa e tukuna ana e koe
But I know a place where we can be us
– Engari e mōhio ana ahau ki tētahi wāhi e taea ai e tātou te noho ki a tātou
I know it ain’t real, but it’s real enough
– E mōhio ana ahau ehara i te mea tūturu, engari he mea tūturu
From sun going down to sun coming up
– Mai i te rā e heke ana ki te rā e heke mai ana
It’s like you’re here with me
– He rite ki te mea kei konei koe ki ahau
Whenever I close my eyes
– I nga wa katoa ka kati aku kanohi
It’s taking me back in time
– Ka hoki mai ahau ki te wā
Been drowning in dreams lately
– Kua horomia i roto i nga moemoea i enei ra
Like it’s 2019, baby
– Ka rite ki te 2019, baby
Whenever I’m missing you
– I nga wa katoa e ngaro ana ahau i a koe
Call you up, but I can’t get through
– Karangatia koe, engari e kore e taea e ahau te tiki i roto i
Don’t know where you sleep lately
– Kaua e mohio ki te wahi e moe koe tata
But I’ll see you in my dreams, maybe
– Engari ka kite ahau i a koe i roto i aku moemoea, pea
We can catch up, drive down our old street
– Ka taea e tātou te hopu, te taraiwa i tō tātou huarahi tawhito
If all that we were is all that we’ll ever be
– Ki te mea ko tātau anake, ko tātau katoa
It’s bittersweet
– He reka te kawa
At least a girl can dream
– I te iti rawa ka taea e te kotiro te moemoea
I guess that I’m taking what I can get
– Ki taku whakaaro kei te tango ahau i nga mea ka taea e au
‘Cause I don’t get nothing new from your friends
– ‘No te mea e kore ahau e whiwhi i tetahi mea hou i o koutou hoa
If you got the harder side of the break
– Ki te whiwhi koe i te taha uaua o te whati
Then why is it harder for me to take?
– Na he aha te mea uaua ki ahau te tango?
There’s so much I might never get to say-ay
– He nui rawa atu te mea kaore pea au e taea te korero-ay
But I know a place where we can be us
– Engari e mōhio ana ahau ki tētahi wāhi e taea ai e tātou te noho ki a tātou
I know it ain’t real, but it’s real enough
– E mōhio ana ahau ehara i te mea tūturu, engari he mea tūturu
From sun going down to sun coming up
– Mai i te rā e heke ana ki te rā e heke mai ana
It’s like you’re here with me

It’s bittersweet
– He reka te kawa
At least a girl can dream
– I te iti rawa ka taea e te kotiro te moemoea
I know it’s only in my mind (Ooh)
– E mohio ana ahau kei roto noa i taku hinengaro(Ooh)
Playin’ three nights on the stereo
– Te tākaro i ngā pō e toru i runga i te pūorooro
Like a movie scene, DiCaprio
– Ka rite ki te whakaaturanga kiriata, DiCaprio
Oh, I put my makeup on just to fall asleep (Ah)
– Aue, hoatu e ahau toku āhua i runga i tika ki te hinga moe(Ah )
It’s like you’re here with me
– He rite ki te mea kei konei koe ki ahau
Whenever I close my eyes
– I nga wa katoa ka kati aku kanohi
It’s taking me back in time
– Ka hoki mai ahau ki te wā

– Ka taea e tātou te hopu, te taraiwa i tō tātou huarahi tawhito
If all that we were is something we’ll never be
– Ki te mea he mea noa iho tātau, e kore rawa tātou e noho
It’s bittersweet
– He reka te kawa
Can we be friends at least?
– Ka taea e tatou te hoa i te iti rawa?
