Lyrics

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 thinkin' 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 place)
 Such a lovely face
 Plenty of room at the Hotel California
 Any time of year (any time of year)
 You can find it here
 Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
 She got the Mercedes Benz, uh
 She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
 That 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 livin' 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"
