Artist : Eagles, The 
Title : Hotel California 
----------------- 
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 got the Mercedes Benz 
She 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 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 
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California 
What a nice surprise 
What a nice surprise 
Bring your alibis 

Mirrors on the ceiling 
The pink champagne 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 night man 
We are programmed to receive 
You can checkout any time you like 
But you can never leave
