(Kia kaha)
3
I left you in the shelter
4
On a wet waikato day.
5
The rain came like a flood
6
Washed our stamping ground away.
7
And so the ties were broken (never look back)
8
Our situation's changed(Kia kaha)
9
I wonder to myself now
10
If we are still the same.
11
We used to laugh at the words of the old school song(Kia kia kia kia)
12
But now I hope that you will be ever strong(Kia kaha)
13
We gathered in the basement
14
Like some religious sect.
15
A band of idle dreamers
16
In a small town safety net.
17
It's been as long as five years
18
Since we were face to face(Kia kaha)
19
We're feeling for the first time
20
Should have something to show for our age.
21
We used to laugh at the words of the old school song(Kia kia kia kia)
22
But now I hope that you will be ever strong(Kia kaha)
23
When I left town I thought an angel watched over me(Kia kia kia kia)
24
It was a shock to find the devil inside me, beside me(Kia kaha)

Maori Haka:
26
Ka mate! Ka mate!(It is death for me)
27
Ka ora! Ka ora!(I live!)
28
Ka mate! Ka mate!(It is death for me)
29
Ka ora! Ka ora!(I live!)
30
Tenei te tangata puhuru-huru (Behold the brave man
31
Nana nei I tiki mai, (literally the hairy man))
32
Whakawhiti te ra!(who has caused the sun to shine again)
33
Aue upane! Aue kaupane!(Up the ladder)
34
Aue upane, kaupane (Up and up)
35
Whiti te ra! (Into the light of the sun)
36
(Kia Kaha)
37
Where did it go, I never noticed it passing
38
(Kia Kaha)
39
Already it's a long time ago...
