Set the default time zone prior to use the date() function.

For instance:

date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
// or 
// date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Madrid')

echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s");

PHP can't inherently know that your system time is incorrect. As others have pointed out, you can query an authoritative source (similar to the solution offered here) instead.

EDIT: shortcut to the time server query example
