HOTEL CALIFORNIA
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 place),
Such a lovely face.
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any of year, you can find it here
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, bring your alibis.
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!"
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, bring your alibis.
