Andalusia (English /ˌændəˈluːʒə/, /ˌændəˈluːziə/; Spanish: Andalucía [andaluˈθi.a] or [andaluˈsi.a]) is the most populous and the second largest in area of the autonomous communities in Spain. The Andalusian autonomous community is officially recognised as a nationality of Spain. The territory is divided into eight provinces: Almería, Cádiz, Córdoba, Granada, Huelva, Jaén, Málaga and Seville. Its capital is the city of Seville (Spanish: Sevilla).
Andalusia is in the south of the Iberian peninsula, immediately south of the autonomous communities of Extremadura and Castile–La Mancha; west of the autonomous community of Murcia and the Mediterranean Sea; east of Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean; and north of the Mediterranean Sea and the Strait of Gibraltar, which separates Spain from Morocco, and the Atlantic Ocean. The small British overseas territory of Gibraltar shares a three-quarter-mile land border with the Andalusian province of Cádiz at the eastern end of the Strait of Gibraltar.
Andalusia has three major geographic subregions. In the north, the mountainous Sierra Morena separates Andalusia from the plains of Extremadura and Castile–La Mancha on Spain's Meseta Central. South of that, one can distinguish Upper Andalusia, generally the Baetic System, from Lower Andalusia with its Baetic Depression of the valley of the Guadalquivir.
There's a love on the edge
So suspicion attracts revenge
Then there's no communication
When we fall, by the wayside
Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found
That everybody needs a chance to grow
There's a love on the wing
I swear this time is really it
When you tell me you, love me
No need to go, put yourself above me
Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found
That everybody needs a chance to grow
Hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
Don't build it up to tear it down
You plant the seed in love, you've found
Oh, hold me up, don't bring me down
Take all the room to build this love
