Aprisiona comes from the word prisión, which means "prison". It's a powerful verb that literally means "to imprison".
In this passionate song, the singer describes how her own heart aprisiona (imprisons) her without wanting to. It beautifully captures the feeling of being trapped by your own overwhelming emotions for someone, unable to escape the love and pain you feel.
This song asks a question that's both simple and impossible to answer: "¿Cómo quieres que te quiera / Si no estás aquí?" (How do you want me to love you / If you're not here?). Rosario and Sebastián Yatra go back and forth, exploring the pain of loving someone who is gone. It's not just physical distance; it's the feeling that the other person isn't giving themselves to the relationship anymore, summed up in the line "Si no te das a mí" (If you don't give yourself to me).
The lyrics are full of regret for a love that wasn't fought for. They suggest the relationship ended because of hesitation, describing it as the kind of love "que se perdió por miedo y le faltó arriesgar" (that was lost to fear and lacked risk). The singers are left imagining what could have been, thinking all it would have taken was "un dejarlo todo y un vamos los dos" (a 'let's leave it all' and a 'let's go, the two of us'). It’s a powerful look at a love that faded away, leaving behind only questions and what-ifs.
