Song. "Hotel California"

 

On a dark  desert highway

Cool  wind in my hair

Warm smell of colitas 

Rising up through the air

Up ahead in a distance

I saw a shimmering light

My  head grew heavy and my sight grew dim 

I had a 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 the 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 a 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 livin’ it up at the Hotel California

What  a nice surprise 

What  a nice surprise 

Bring your alibis

Mirrors on the  ceiling

The pink   сhampagne 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 am  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 check out any time you like

But you can never leave  !”
