Lyrics

[01:11.140] On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair
[01:17.250] Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
[01:23.670] Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
[01:29.780] My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
[01:33.370] I had to stop for the night
[01:36.750] There she stood in the doorway
[01:39.750] I heard the mission bell
[01:43.410] And I was thinking to myself
[01:45.370] this could be heaven or this could be hell
[01:49.650] Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
[01:55.810] There were voices down the corridor
[01:59.250] I thought I heard them say
[02:02.220] Welcome to the hotel california
[02:08.110] Such a lovely place
[02:11.330] Such a lovely face
[02:14.500] Plenty of room at the hotel california
[02:20.400] Any time of year you can find it here
[02:27.570] Her mind is tiffany-twisted she got the mercedes bends
[02:33.840] She got a lot of pretty pretty boys that she calls friends
[02:40.220] How they dance in the courtyard sweet summer sweat
[02:46.590] Some dance to remember some dance to forget
[02:53.060] So I called up the captain
[02:56.060] please bring me my wine
[02:59.330] He said we haven t had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine
[03:06.430] And still those voices are calling from far away
[03:12.130] Wake you up in the middle of the night
[03:15.360] Just to hear them say
[03:18.930] Welcome to the hotel california
[03:24.860] Such a lovely place
[03:27.850] Such a lovely face
[03:31.550] They livin it up at the hotel california
[03:37.480] What a nice surprise bring your alibis
[03:44.540] Mirrors on the ceiling
[03:49.950] The pink champagne on ice
[03:51.090] And she said we are all just prisoners here of our own device
[03:57.250] And in the master s chambers
[04:01.580] They gathered for the feast
[04:05.300] The stab it with their steely knives
[04:07.550] But they just can t kill the beast
[04:10.630] Last thing I remember I was
[04:13.040] Running for the door
[04:17.190] I had to find the passage back
[04:22.730] To the place I was before
[04:23.310] relax said the night man
[04:25.810] We are programmed to receive
[04:29.360] You can checkout any time you like
[04:33.110] But you can never leave!
