Hotel California lyrics by Eagles |
Intro: |
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 (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 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." |
"We haven't had that spirit here |
since nineteen sixty-nine" |
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 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 nightman |
"We are programmed to receive" |
"You can check out anytime you like |
but you can never leave" |
