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 voice down in corridor, I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place) 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 swea 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 nineteen sixty nine." And still those voices are calling from far away Wake 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) They livin' it up at the Hotel California What a nice surprise, bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceilling 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 gathers 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!"
