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 lift 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 Califor-
-nia."
Such a
lovely place, (such a lovely place), such a
lovely face.
Plenty of room at the Hotel Califor-
-nia.
Any
time of year, (any time of year), you can
find it here.
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
she got the Mercedes-Benz, uh
she got alotta 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, hey.
They're
livin' it up at the Hotel Califor-
-nia.
What a
nice surprise, (what a nice surprise), bring your
alibis.
Mirrors on the ceiling
the pink champange 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 recede,
you can check out any time you like
but you can never leave."
