| [02:08.36] |
On a dark desert highway |
| [02:11.69] |
Cool wind in my hair |
| [02:14.75] |
Warm smell of colitas |
| [02:17.91] |
Rising up through the air |
| [02:21.27] |
Up ahead in the distance |
| [02:24.13] |
I saw a shimmering light |
| [02:27.37] |
My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dim |
| [02:30.67] |
I had to stop for the night |
| [02:34.11] |
There she stood in the doorway |
| [02:37.21] |
I heard the mission bell |
| [02:40.33] |
And I was thinking to myself |
| [02:42.72] |
This could be Heaven or this could be Hell |
| [02:46.80] |
Then she lit up a candle |
| [02:50.02] |
And she showed me the way |
| [02:53.16] |
There were voices down the corridor |
| [02:56.27] |
I thought I heard them say |
| [02:59.48] |
Welcome to the Hotel California |
| [03:05.09] |
Such a lovely place |
| [03:06.66] |
Such a lovely place (background) |
| [03:08.42] |

| [03:12.15] |
Plenty of room at the Hotel California |
| [03:17.86] |

| [03:19.62] |
Any time of year (background) |
| [03:21.23] |
You can find it here |
| [03:24.47] |
Her mind is Tiffany twisted |
| [03:28.14] |
Shes got the Mercedes bends |
| [03:31.32] |
Shes got a lot of pretty, pretty boys |
| [03:34.43] |
That she calls friends |
| [03:37.87] |
How they dance in the courtyard |
| [03:40.56] |
Sweet summer sweat |
| [03:43.97] |
Some dance to remember |
| [03:47.25] |
Some dance to forget |
| [03:50.47] |
So I called up the Captain |
| [03:53.58] |
Please bring me my wine |
| [03:55.53] |
He said |
| [03:56.83] |
We havent had that spirit here since 1969 |
| [04:03.71] |
And still those voices are calling from far away |
| [04:09.56] |
Wake you up in the middle of the night |
| [04:12.81] |
Just to hear them say |
| [04:15.94] |
Welcome to the Hotel California |
| [04:21.52] |
Such a lovely Place |
| [04:23.57] |

| [04:25.50] |

What a nice surprise (background) |
| [04:37.65] |
Bring your alibies |
| [04:41.67] |
Mirrors on the ceiling |
| [04:44.81] |
Pink champagne on ice |
| [04:47.07] |
And she said |
| [04:48.04] |
We are all just prisoners here |
| [04:51.46] |
Of our own device |
| [04:54.82] |
And in the masters chambers |
| [04:58.06] |
They gathered for the feast |
| [05:01.19] |
They stab it with their steely knives |
| [05:04.30] |
But they just cant kill the beast |
| [05:07.54] |
Last thing I remember |
| [05:10.67] |
I was running for the door |
| [05:14.04] |
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before |
| [05:20.45] |
Relax said the nightman |
| [05:23.00] |
We are programed to receive |
| [05:26.91] |
