On a dark desert hightway Cool wind in my hair Warm smeel of colytas 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 myse This could be heaven now this could be helllf Then she lit up a candle And she showed me the way There were voices down in 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 time of year (Any time of year) You can find it here Her mind is tiffany- twisted She's got the Mercedes Benz She's 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 to forget So l called up the captain: "Please bring me my wine"He said: "We haven't had that spirit here since 1969" And still those voicse are caling 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 Plenty of room at the Hotel California What a nice surprise (What a nice surprise) Bring your alibis Mirrors on the ceiling Pink champage on ice And She said: "We are all just prisoners here of our own device" In the master's chambers They gathered for the feast They stabbed 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 pasage Back to the place I was before Relax said the night man "We are programed 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 face "Welcome to the Hotel California" Any time of year You can find it here
