Hotel California (UK House Vocal Mix) - Minus 8/Billie
Composed by:Felder Don/Frey Glenn Lewi/Henley Don
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
Then I heard the mission bell
And I was thinkin' to myself
'This could be heaven or this could be hell
Then she lit up a candle
And he showed me the way
I here this voices down the corridor
And I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place such a lovely place
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year any time of year
You can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
His got the Mercedes bends uh
His got a lot of pretty girls
That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard
Sweet Summer sweat
Some dance to remember
But dance 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 1969
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place such a lovely place
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise what a nice surprise
Bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne 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
The 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 receive
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave
