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 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, she got the Mercedes Benz
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys 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"
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/hotel-california-lyrics-the-eagles.html ]
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...
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
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
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! "

In 1969 summer that man goes for a long vacation and he stops at Hotel California to get some rest. He meets the girl next door and he starts to date with her. They like these cool hotel and decides to spend their vacation here together. They love each other very much. They decide at the end of the vacation not to call each other for 1 year to understand if it is real love or a summer love. If they don't forget each other they deal to come that hotel and meet again. 1 year later the guy comes to California, the way was sooo long for him. When he arrives to hotel he sees that hotel is black. It is burned 1 day before and the girl which he loves was in the hotel waiting him; and she was died at the hotel. The team of the group was affected when they heard that story and wrote this song. I love this song very much and I always remember the vexing story when I listen it.

I love you So much You must **** me now. If I was your vampire, Certain as the moon, Instead of ****ing time, We'll have each other Until the sun. If I was your vampire, Death waits for no one. Hold my hands Across your face, Because I think Our time has come.
