Oh No Oh Yes!
Akina Nakamori Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

ひとつひとつ消えてゆく
オフィス街の窓灯り
ヒールの音もひそめて
あなたに会うために
足早に歩くの
薬指のリングより
人目忍ぶ恋選んだ
強い女に見えても
心の中いつも
切なさに揺れてる
Oh no, 罪なふたりね
But no, はなれられない
Oh yes, このまま愛されたい
Oh no, loving you is not right
But no,
don't take me home tonight
Oh yes,
so baby won't you hold me tight

さびれかけたテアトルや
扉を閉ざしてるファーマシー
通りを渡ればすぐに
あなたの待つホテル
でも戸惑っている......
道ゆく恋人達は
なんて幸せそうなの
いとしい胸に崩れて
遅すぎた出逢いを
涙でうめてゆく
Oh no, かなわぬ想い
But no, 何もいらない
Oh yes, あなたに抱かれるなら
Oh no,
it's not the way I planned
But no, don't let it be
"one-night-stand"
Oh yes,
so baby try to understand

Oh no, 罪なふたりね
But no, はなれられない
Oh yes, このまま愛されたい
Oh no, loving you is not right
But no,
don't take me home tonight
Oh yes,
so baby won't you hold me tight
Oh no,
it's not the way I planned
But no, don't let it be
"one-night-stand"
Oh yes,
so baby try to understand
Oh no, loving you is not right
But no,
don't take me home tonight
Oh yes,
so baby won't you hold me tight
Oh no,




it's not the way I planned
But no, don't let it be ...

Overall Meaning

The song "Oh No Oh Yes!" by Akina Nakamori depicts a story of a forbidden love affair between two individuals. The first verse illustrates the singer's eagerness to meet her lover while walking hurriedly through the streets that gradually become desolate. Although she appears to be a strong woman who chose a secret love affair despite hiding it from everyone, behind her facade, she is constantly tormented by her sentiments for her lover. The chorus reveals her inner conflicts, oscillating between her love for him and the realization that their relationship cannot last forever. She knows that interacting with him is sinful but staying away from him is impossible, so all she can do is request that he holds her tight.


The subsequent verse narrates her uncertainty as she stands outside her lover's hotel, watching passersby who seem to be blissfully in love. However, the singer's relationship is too late as they have missed so many opportunities to be together for fear of what society will think of them. As the song ends, the chorus repeats, displaying the singer's state of mind that remains the same, leaving the audience with the uncertainty of what lies ahead for the lovers.
