[06:45.00]On a dark desert highway
[06:45.00]Cool wind in my hair
[06:45.00]Warm smell of colitas
[06:45.00]Rising up through the air
[06:45.00]Up ahead in the distance
[06:45.00]I saw a shimmering light
[06:45.00]My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
[06:45.00]I had to stop for the night
[06:45.00]There she stood in the doorway
[06:45.00]I heard the mission bell
[06:45.00]And I was thinking to myself
[06:45.00]This could be heaven or this could be hell
[06:45.00]Then she lit up a candle
[06:45.00]And she showed me the way
[06:45.00]There were voices down the corridor
[06:45.00]I thought I heard them say
[06:45.00]Welcome to the Hotel California
[06:45.00]Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
[06:45.00]Such a lovely face
[06:45.00]Plenty of room at the Hotel California
[06:45.00]Any time of year (any time of year)
[06:45.00]You can find it here
[06:45.00]Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
[06:45.00]She got the Mercedes-Benz, uh
[06:45.00]She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
[06:45.00]That she calls friends
[06:45.00]How they danced in the courtyard
[06:45.00]Sweet summer sweat
[06:45.00]Some dance to remember
[06:45.00]Some dance to forget
[06:45.00]So I called up the captain
[06:45.00]"Please bring me my wine"
[06:45.00]He said,"We haven't had that spirit here since 1969"
[06:45.00]And still those voices are calling from far away
[06:45.00]Wake you up in the middle of the night
[06:45.00]Just to hear them say
[06:45.00]Welcome to the Hotel California
[06:45.00]Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
[06:45.00]Such a lovely face
[06:45.00]They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
[06:45.00]What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
[06:45.00]Bring your alibis
[06:45.00]Mirrors on the ceiling
[06:45.00]The pink champagne on ice
[06:45.00]And she said,"We are all just prisoners here
[06:45.00]Of our own device"
[06:45.00]And in the master's chambers
[06:45.00]They gathered for the feast
[06:45.00]They stab it with their steely knives
[06:45.00]But they just can't kill the beast
[06:45.00]Last thing I remember
[06:45.00]I was running for the door
[06:45.00]I had to find the passage back
[06:45.00]To the place I was before
[06:45.00]"Relax," said the night man
[06:45.00]"We are programmed to receive
[06:45.00]You can check out any time you like
[06:45.00]But you can never leave"
