Hotel California - The Eagles

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 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 bends 
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 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 you up in the middle the night 
Just to hear them say... 

Welcome to the Hotel California 
Such a lovely Place 
Such a lovely Place 
Such a lovely face 

They´re livin´ it up at the Hotel California 
What a nice surprise 
What a nice surprise 
Bring your alibies 

Mirrors on the ceiling 
Depict champaign 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 programed to recieve 
You can check out any time you like 
But you can never leave
