Oohyo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's only what You say
Through me
Through me
Oh, through me
It's not what I do
It's only what You do
Through me
Oh, through me, yeah
You are the light
That guides me further
There is no other place I would rather be but here
The night is cold, the wind has speed
It doesn't matter
Cause I have you and You have me on this motorcycle
(It's not what I say
It's only what You say
Through me
Through me
Oh, through me
It's not what I do
It's only what You do
Through me
Through me
Oh, through me, yeah)
The lyrics of Oohyo's song "Motorcycle" convey a strong sense of surrender and dependence on a higher power. Oohyo suggests that everything she says or does comes from this higher power, and she is merely a vessel for its message and actions. This theme is reiterated throughout the song, as the chorus repeats the phrases "through me" and "oh, through me".
The second verse reinforces this idea with the lines "You are the light that guides me further/ There is no other place I would rather be but here". Oohyo acknowledges that without this higher force, she would be lost, but with it, she feels complete and happy. Despite the challenges of the night and the cold wind, she feels safe and secure because she has this power by her side.
