Song by The Eagles<br /><br>

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair <br>

Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air <br>

Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light <br>

My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dimmer <br>

I had to stop for the night <br>

There she stood in the doorway; <br>

I heard the mission bell <br>

And I was thinking to myself, <br>

'This could be Heaven or this could be Hell' <br>

Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way <br>

There were voices down the corridor, I thought I heard them say... <br>

Welcome to the Hotel California <br>

Such a lovely Place (such a lovely face) <br>

They livin' it up at the Hotel California <br>

What a nice surprise, bring your alibis <br>

<br>

Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, She got the Mercedes bends <br>

She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends <br>

How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat. <br>

Some dance to remember, some dance to forget <br>

So I called up the Captain, 'Please bring me my wine' <br>

He said, 'We haven't had that spirit here since 1969' <br>

And still those voices are calling from far away <br>

Wake you up in the middle of the night <br>

Just to hear them say... <br>

<br>

Welcome to the Hotel California <br>

Such a lovely Place (such a lovely face) <br>

They livin' it up at the Hotel California <br>

What a nice surprise, bring your alibis <br>

<br>

Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice <br>

And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device' <br>

And in the master's chambers, they gathered for the feast <br>

They stab it with their steely knives, but they just can't kill the beast <br>

Last thing I remember, I was running for the door <br>

I had to find the passage back to the place I was before <br>

'Relax' said the nightman, We are programmed to receive. <br>

You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.<br>
