Spanish (i/ˈspænɪʃ/, español), also called Castilian (
i/kæˈstɪliən/,
castellano ), is a Romance language that originated in the Castile region of Spain and today has hundreds of millions of native-speakers across the world.
Spanish is a part of the Ibero-Romance group of languages, which evolved from several dialects of common Latin in Iberia after the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century. It was first documented in central-northern Iberia in the 9th century and gradually spread with the expansion of the Kingdom of Castile into central and southern Iberia. Beginning in the early 16th century, Spanish was taken to the colonies of the Spanish Empire, most notably to the Americas, as well as territories in Africa, Oceania and the Philippines.
From its beginnings, Spanish vocabulary was influenced by its contact with Basque, as well as by neighboring Ibero-Romance languages, and later it absorbed many Arabic words during the Al-Andalus era in the Iberian Peninsula. It also adopted words from non-Iberian languages, particularly the Romance languages Occitan, French, Italian and Sardinian, as well as from Nahuatl and other Indigenous languages of the Americas.
Figueras is one of nine parishes (administrative divisions) in the Castropol municipality, within the province and autonomous community of Asturias, in northern Spain.

From a distant planet
Something's talking
New sensations, feelings
Looking for dreams
I can remind you
I can remember
I can live daydream
There's my place
From a distant space
A star is coming
New procession calling
Trying to thrill me
I can't remind you
I can't remember
I can't remain here
On your dream
Man you see I fly tonight
You can really meet sunrise
If you get the friends today
You can really flap your hands
I began to know you now
When your eyes are watching me
You don't have to lose yourself
There's a new world coming now
From a distant space
A star is coming
New procession calling
Trying to thrill me
I can't remind you
I can't remember
I can't remain here
On your dream
Man you see I fly tonight
You can really meet sunrise
If you get the friends today
You can really flap your hands
I began to know you now
When your eyes are watching me
You don't have to lose yourself
There's a new world coming now
I began to know you now
When your eyes are watching me
You don't have to lose yourself
