| 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 lit 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 California
|
| Such a lovely face
|
| Such a lovely face
|
| Plenty of room at the Hotel California
|
| What a nice surprise
|
| Bring your alibis
|
| You have my heart
|
| And we’ll never be worlds apart
|
| Maybe in magazines
|
| But you’ll still be my star
|
| Baby, 'cause in the dark
|
| You can’t see shiny cars
|
| And that’s when you need me there
|
| With you I’ll always share
|
| Because
|
| When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
|
| Told you I’d be here forever
|
| Said I’ll always be a friend
|
| Took an oath I’ma stick it out 'til the end
|
| Now that it’s raining more than ever
|
| Know that we’ll still have each other
|
| You can stand under my umbrella
|
| You can stand under my umbrella
|
| (Ella ella eh eh eh)
|
| Under my umbrella
|
| (Ella ella eh eh eh)
|
| Under my umbrella
|
| (Ella ella eh eh eh)
|
| Under my umbrella
|
| (Ella ella eh ehhhh)
|
| Oh oh oh oh because
|
| Oh oh, California
|
| Such a lovely face
|
| Such a lovely face (yeah yeah)
|
| Maybe you’re through man the Hotel California
|
| What a nice surprise
|
| Bring your alibis… |
