[00:52.26]On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
[00:58.76]Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
[01:05.17]Up ahead in the distance,I saw a shimmering light
[01:11.67]My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
[01:14.97]I had to stop for the night
[01:18.23]There she stood in the doorway
[01:21.44]I heard the mission bell
[01:24.69]And I was thinking to myself
[01:27.16]"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell"
[01:31.22]Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
[01:37.72]There were voices down the corridor
[01:40.97]I thought I heard them say...
[01:44.28]Welcome to the Hotel California
[01:49.96]Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
[01:53.22]Such a lovely face
[01:56.61]Plenty of room at the Hotel California
[02:02.96]Any time of year (Any time of year)
[02:06.21]you can find it here
[02:10.12]Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes benz
[02:16.61]She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys she calls friends
[02:23.21]How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
[02:29.72]Some dance to remember some dance to forget
[02:36.22]So I called up the Captain
[02:39.37]"Please bring me my wine"
[02:41.79]He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine"
[02:49.27]And still those voices are calling from far away
[02:55.69]Wake you up in the middle of the night
[02:58.99]Just to hear them say...
[03:02.21]Welcome to the Hotel California
[03:07.97]Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
[03:11.22]Such a lovely face
[03:15.02]They livin' it up at the Hotel California
[03:21.03]What a nice surprise (What a nice surprise)
[03:25.03]Bring your alibis
[03:28.25]Mirrors on the ceiling
[03:31.51]The pink champagne on ice
[03:33.64]And she said,"We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
[03:41.05]And in the master's chambers
[03:44.30]They gathered for the feast
[03:47.60]They stab it with their steely knives
[03:50.27]But they just can't kill the beast
[03:54.17]Last thing I remember, I was
[03:56.98]Running for the door
[04:00.69]I had to find the passage back
[04:03.19]To the place I was before
[04:07.17]"Relax," said the night man
[04:09.82]"We are programmed to receive
[04:13.73]You can check-out any time you like
[04:16.78]but you can never leave"
