Eagles - Hotel California

[00:52.49] On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair

[00:58.74] Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air

[01:05.50] Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light

[01:11.99] My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim

[01:14.99] I had to stop for the night.

[01:18.74] There she stood in the doorway;

[01:21.74] I heard the mission bell

[01:25.24] And I was thinking to myself

[01:27.49] 'This could be heaven or this could be Hell'

[01:31.49] Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way

[01:38.25] There were voices down the corridor,

[01:40.99] I thought I heard them say

[01:44.75] Welcome to the Hotel California

[01:50.24] Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)

[01:53.75] Such a lovely face.

[01:57.24] Plenty of room at the Hotel California

[02:03.25] Any time of year (any time of year) you can find it here

[02:10.49] Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the Mercedes bends

[02:14.00] She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends

[02:23.75] How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat

[02:29.99] Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

[02:36.50] So I called up the Captain,

[02:39.74] 'Please bring me my wine'

[02:42.74] He said, 'we haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty-nine'

[02:49.24] And still those voices are calling from far away,

[02:55.99] Wake you up in the middle of the night

[02:59.49] Just to hear them say"

[03:02.49] Welcome to the Hotel California

[03:08.24] Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)

[03:11.24] Such a lovely face.

[03:14.99] They livin' it up at the Hotel California

[03:21.24] What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise), bring your alibis

[03:28.74] Mirrors on the ceiling,

[03:31.75] The pink champagne on ice

[03:38.75] And she said, 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'

[03:41.25] And in the master's chambers,

[03:44.50] They gathered for the feast

[03:47.99] They stab it with their steely knives,

[03:50.48] But they just can't kill the beast

[03:54.49] Last thing I remember, I was

[03:57.49] Running for the door

[04:00.49] I had to find the passage back to the place I was before

[04:07.24] 'Relax' said the night man,

[04:10.24] 'We are programmed to receive.

[04:13.75] You can check out any time you like,

[04:17.25] But you can never leave!'
