[00:26.670]On a dark desert highway cool wind in my hair
[00:32.790]Warm smell of colitas rising up through the air
[00:39.210]Up ahead in the distance I saw a shimmering light
[00:45.420]My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
[00:48.500]I had to stop for the night
[00:51.830]There she stood in the doorway
[00:54.840]I heard the mission bell
[00:58.450]And I was thinking to myself
[01:00.160]This could be Heaven or this could be Hell
[01:04.470]Then she lit up a candle and she showed me the way
[01:10.930]There were voices down the corridor
[01:13.910]I thought I heard them say
[01:17.300]Welcome to the Hotel California
[01:22.880]Such a lovely place
[01:26.090]Such a lovely place
[01:29.570]Plenty of room at the Hotel California
[01:35.840]Any time of year
[01:38.890]You can find it here
[01:42.810]Her mind is Tiffany-twisted she got the Mercedes bends
[01:48.990]She got a lot of pretty pretty boys she calls friends
[01:55.580]How they dance in the courtyard sweet summer sweat
[02:02.030]Some dance to remember some dance to forget
[02:08.400]So I called up the Captain
[02:11.500]Please bring me my wine
[02:13.870]He said
[02:14.560]We haven't had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine
[02:21.180]And still those voices are calling from far away
[02:27.430]Wake you up in the middle of the night
[02:30.680]Just to hear them say
[02:33.950]Welcome to the Hotel California
[02:39.550]Such a lovely place
[02:42.760]Such a lovely face
[02:46.310]They livin' it up at the Hotel California
[02:52.550]What a nice surprise
[02:55.720]Bring your alibis
[02:59.870]Mirrors on the ceiling
[03:03.020]The pink champagne on ice
[03:04.900]She said
[03:06.370]We are all just prisoners here of our own device
[03:13.140]In the master's chambers
[03:16.230]They gathered for the feast
[03:19.450]They stab it with their steely knives
[03:21.970]But they just can't kill the beast
[03:26.170]Last thing I remember I was
[03:29.250]Running for the door
[03:32.740]I had to find the passage back
[03:34.850]To the place I was before
[03:39.000]Relax said the night man
[03:41.360]We are programmed to receive
[03:45.230]You can check-out any time you like
[03:48.370]You can never leave
[03:50.300]
