What irony that to me
This is happening
You hurt me again
I still love you
But that's life
Sometimes a person comes to us
Who kisses us and has us
Who touches us and moves us
Who makes us
However they want
I prefer you, you, you
Above all else
I love having you here, here, and here
Even if it's just for a few hours
I prefer you, you, you
Even if you disappear
You only love me sometimes
What did you give me or what did you do to me, I don't know
But I prefer you
Even if you don't deserve it
Maybe one day
I'll dare to do what I should with you
Look into your eyes, to see
If I matter to you or if you throw me into oblivion
I prefer you, you, you
Above all else
I love having you here, here, and here
Even if it's just for a few hours
But that's life
Sometimes a person comes to us
Who kisses us and has us
Who touches us and moves us
Who makes us however they want
I prefer you
Above all else
I love having you here
Here, even if it's just for a few hours
I prefer you, you, you
Even if you disappear
You only love me sometimes
What did you give me or what did you do to me, I don't know
But I prefer you
Even if you don't deserve it
What did you give me or what did you do to me, I don't know
But I prefer you
Even if you don't deserve it

Ironía translates to "irony" in English. It's a word that immediately sets a reflective and slightly dramatic tone, hinting at a deeper story within the lyrics.

In the song, the opening line, "Qué ironía que a mí me esté pasando esto" (What irony that this is happening to me), uses the word to express the singer's disbelief and perhaps a touch of bitterness about being hurt by someone they still love. It's an engaging word that suggests a twist of fate or a contradictory situation, making it memorable and enticing.

Have you ever felt completely captivated by someone, even when you know they might not be the best for you? That's the powerful and painful feeling at the heart of "Yo Te Prefiero A Ti." The singers describe a love that's an irony—they keep getting hurt, but they can't stop loving the person. It's about that one special individual who comes into your life and just has a hold on you, someone who "kisses you and has you" and can make you do whatever they want.

The song's chorus is a passionate declaration: "I prefer you, you, you / Over all things." This feeling is so strong that the singer cherishes every moment they have together, even if it's just for a few hours. But there's a catch. This person disappears and only seems to want them sometimes. The singer is left wondering what kind of spell they are under, admitting that this person doesn't deserve their love, but they can't help themselves. It's a classic tale of heart versus head, a struggle with a love that feels both amazing and agonizing.
