Hotel California By: The Eagle

On a dark desert highway

Cool wind in my hair

Warm smell of colitas

Raising up through the air

Up ahead in the distance

So I show 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 lift 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 room at the hotel california

Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the mercedez bends

She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friend

How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer, 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 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, bring your alibis

Mirror on the ceiling the pink capaigne on ice

And she said, “ we are all just prisoners here, of our own device

And in the master chamber, they gather for the feast

The 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 night man
