Hotel California
On a dark desert highway
- On a dark desert highway
- Cool wind in my hair
- Warm smell of colitas
- Rising up through the air
- Up ahead in the distance
- I saw a shimmering light
- My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
- I had to stop for the night
- There she stood in the doorway
- I heard the mission bell
- And I was thinking to myself
- This could be heaven or this could be hell
- Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
- There were voices down the corridor
- I thought I heard them say
- Welcome to the Hotel California
- Such a lovely place
- Such a lovely face
- Plenty of room at the Hotel California
- Any time of year
- You can find it here
- Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
- She got the Mercedes Bends
- She got a lot of pretty pretty boys
- she calls friends
- How they dance in the courtyard
- sweet summer sweat
- Some dance to remember
- some dance to forget
- So I called up the Captain
- Please bring me my wine
- He said we haven't had that spirit here since 1969
- And still those voices are calling from far away
- Wake you up in the middle of the night
- Just to hear them say
- Welcome to the Hotel California
- Such a lovely place such a lovely place
- Such a lovely face
- They living it up at the Hotel California
- What a nice surprise what a nice surprise
- Bring your alibis
- Mirrors on the ceiling
- The pink champagne on ice
- And she said: We are all just prisoners here of our own device
- And in the master's chambers
- They gathered for the feast
- They stab it with their steely knives
- But they just can't kill the beast
- Last thing I remember I was
- Running for the door
- I had to find the passage back
- To the place I was before
- Relax said the night man
- We are programmed to receive
- You can check-out any time you like
- But you can never leave
