Topenga Ataata
Kupu Tūpato
I couldn’t guess
– Kaore I taea e au te whakaaro
All the things goin’ on in your head
– Ko nga mea katoa e haere ana i roto i to mahunga
All the reasons you had when you left
– Ko nga take katoa i a koe i to wehenga atu
I don’t need to know
– Kaore au e hiahia ki te mohio
After a while
– I muri i te wā
All the memories that I had left
– Ko ngā maharatanga katoa i mahue I ahau
Were the ones I don’t wanna forget
– Ko te hunga e kore ahau e hiahia ana ki te wareware
Now I keep ’em close
– Na, kei te piri tonu ahau ki a rātou
So when you think of me in the dead of night
– Na ka whakaaro koe ki ahau i te pō pō
Baby, don’t you cry
– E te tamaiti, kaua e tangi
Darling, I pray for ya
– E te aroha, e inoi ana ahau mō koe
Yeah, I pray for ya
– Ae, inoi ahau mo koutou
Wherever you go, I want you to know that I pray
– I nga wahi katoa e haere ana koe, e hiahia ana ahau kia mohio koe e inoi ana ahau
Always have grace for ya
– He aroha noa tonu ki a koe
I’ll take the pain for ya
– Ka tangohia e ahau te mamae mo koe
Wherever you go, I want you to know that I pray
– I nga wahi katoa e haere ana koe, e hiahia ana ahau kia mohio koe e inoi ana ahau
There was a time
– He wā
Where the words that you said really cut
– Kei hea nga kupu i tino tapahia e koe
Where I couldn’t help holding a grudge
– Ki te kore e taea e au te awhina ki te pupuri i te riri
But I let it go
– Engari i tukua e ahau
So I want you to find your peace
– Na e hiahia ana ahau kia kitea e koe to rangimarie
It’s okay if it’s not me
– He pai ki te kore ahau
Don’t need your apology for givin’ me hope
– Kaua e hiahia ki tō mihi mō te tuku i te tūmanako ki ahau
Darling, I pray for ya
– E te aroha, e inoi ana ahau mō koe
Yeah, I pray for ya
– Ae, inoi ahau mo koutou
Wherever you go, I want you to know that I pray
– I nga wahi katoa e haere ana koe, e hiahia ana ahau kia mohio koe e inoi ana ahau
Always have grace for ya
– He aroha noa tonu ki a koe
I’ll take the pain for ya
– Ka tangohia e ahau te mamae mo koe
Wherever you go, I want you to know that I pray
– I nga wahi katoa e haere ana koe, e hiahia ana ahau kia mohio koe e inoi ana ahau
Yeah, I pray (Pray, pray, pray, pray)
– Ae, inoi ahau (Inoi, inoi, inoi)
Said I pray (Pray, pray, pray, pray)
– Ka mea ahau inoi ahau (Inoi, inoi, inoi, inoi)
Said I pray-ay-ay (Pray, pray, pray, pray)
– Ka mea ahau inoi-ay-ay (Inoi, inoi, inoi, inoi)
Said I pray (Pray, pray, pray, pray)
– Ka mea ahau inoi ahau (Inoi, inoi, inoi, inoi)
When you think of me and you want to cry
– Ka whakaaro koe ki ahau, ka hiahia koe ki te tangi
‘Cause the things you did keep you up at night
– ‘Nā te mea i mau tonu koe i te pō
When you think of me, baby, don’t think twice
– Ki te whakaaro koe ki ahau, e te tamaiti, kaua e whakaaro rua
It’s all alright
– He pai katoa
Darling, I pray for ya
– E te aroha, e inoi ana ahau mō koe
Yeah, I pray for ya
– Ae, inoi ahau mo koutou
Wherever you go, I want you to know that I pray
– I nga wahi katoa e haere ana koe, e hiahia ana ahau kia mohio koe e inoi ana ahau
I’ll always have grace for ya
– Ka whai aroha noa tonu ahau ki a koe
I’ll take the pain for ya (Pain)
– Ka tango ahau i te mamae mo ya (Mamae)
Wherever you go, I want you to know that I pray

Yeah, I pray (Pray, pray, pray, pray)
– Ae, inoi ahau (Inoi, inoi, inoi)
Said I pray (Pray, pray, pray, pray)
– Ka mea ahau inoi ahau (Inoi, inoi, inoi, inoi)
Said I pray-ay-ay (Pray, pray, pray, pray)
– Ka mea ahau inoi-ay-ay (Inoi, inoi, inoi, inoi)
Wherever you go, I want you to know that I pray
– I nga wahi katoa e haere ana koe, e hiahia ana ahau kia mohio koe e inoi ana ahau
