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
Th en she lit up a candle,
and she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor,
I thought I heard them say
We lcome to the Hotel California.
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
Th ere's Plenty of room
at the Hotel California
Anytime of year,(anytime of year)
You can find us here...
Her mind is Tiffany twisted,
She got a mercedes benz
She got alot of pretty pretty boys
that she calls friends
Ho w they danced in the court
yard 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
an d still those voice are
calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
We lcome to the Hotel California.
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the
Hotel California
What a nice surprise,
bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling the pink
champagne on ice (an she said)
We are all just prisoners here ,
of our own device
an d 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 find the passage back to the place
I was before
'R elax' said the night man;
we are programmed to receive
You can check out anytime you like
But you can never leave
We lcome to the Hotel California.
Such a lovely place, such a lovely face
Th ere's Plenty of room at the
Hotel California
What a nice surprise; bring your alibis
