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 face Plenty of room at the Hotel California Any time of year You can find it here Her mind is Tiffany twisted She got the Mercedes Bentz She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys That she call friends How they dance in the courtyard Sweet summer sweat Some dance to remember, some dance to forget So I called up the captine "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 night Just to hear them say Welcome to the Hotel California Such a lovely place Such a lovely face They livin' it up at the Hotel California What a nice surprise bring you alibis.. Mirrors on the ceiling The pink champaine 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 nightman "We are programmed to receive You can check out any time you like But you can never leave |

There are stars
In the Southern sky Southward as you go There is moonlight And moss in the trees Down the Seven Bridges Road Now I have loved you like a baby Like some lonesome child And I have loved you in a tame way And I have loved you wild Sometimes there's a part of me Has to turn form here and go Running like a child from these warm stars Down the Seven Bridges Road There are stars in the Southern sky And if ever you decide You should go There is a taste of time sweetened honey Down the Seven Bridges Road |

Out in the shiny night
The rain was softly falling The tracks that ran down the boulevard Had all been washed away Out of the silver light The past came softly calling And I remembered the times we spent Inside the Sad Cafe Oh it seemed like a holy place Protected by amazing grace And we would sing right out loud The things we could not say We thought we could change this world With words like love and freedom We were part of the lonely crowd Inside the Sad Cafe Oh expecting to fly We would meet on that beautiful shore In the sweet by and by Some of their dreams came true Some just passed away And some of them stayed behind Inside the Sad Cafe The clouds rolled in and hid that shore Now that Glory Train It don't stop here no more Now I lock at the years gone by And wonder at the powers that be I don't know why fortune smiles on some And lets the rest go free Maybe the time has drawn The faces I recall But things in this life change very slowly If they ever change at all No use in asking why Cause it just turned out that way So meet me at midnight baby Inside the Sad Cafe Why don't you meet me at midnight baby Inside the Sad Cafe. |

He was a hard-headed man
He was brutally handsome, and she was teminally pretty She held him up, and he held her for ransome in the heart of the cold, cold city He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude They said he was ruthless, they said he was crude They had one thing in common, they were good in bed She'd say, 'Faster,faster. The lights are turnin' red." Life in the fast lane Surely make you lose your mind, mm Are you with me so far? Eager for action and bot for the game The coming attraction, the drop of a name They knew all the right people, they took all the right pills They threw outrageous parties, they paid heavily bills. There were lines on the mirror, lines on her face She pretended not to notice, she was caught up in the race Out every evening, until it was light He was too tired to make it, she was too tired to fight about it Life in the fast lane Surely make you lse your mind Life in the fast lane, everything all the time Life in the fast lane, uh huh Blowin' and burnin', blinded by thirst They didn't see the stop sign, took a turn for the worst. She said, "Listen, baby.You can hear the engine ring.We've been up and down this highway; haven't seen a goddam thing." He said,"Call the doctor. I think I'm gonna crash." "The doctor say he's comin', but you gotta pay him cash." They went rushin' down that freeway, messed around and got lost They didn't know they were just dyin' to get off And it was life in the fast lane Life in the fast lane |

There's so many things you should have told her, but night after night you're willing to hold her, Just hold her, tears on your shoulder There's talk on the street, it's there to Remind you, that it doesn't really matter which side you're on. You're walking away and they're talking behind you They will never forget you 'til somebody new comes along Where you been lately? There's a new kid in town Everybody loves him, don't they?

I used to hurry a lot, I used to worry a lot
I used to stay out till the break of day Oh, that didn't get it, It was high time I quit it I just couldn't carry on that way Oh, I did some damage, I know it's true Didn't know I was so lonely, till I found you You can go the distance We'll find out in the long run (in the long run) We can handle some resistance If our love is a strong one (is a strong one) People talkin' about is they got nothin' else to do When it all comes down we will still come through In the long run Ooh, I want to tell you, it's a long run You know I don't understand why you don't treat yourself better do the crazy things that you do 'Cause all the debutantes in Houston, baby, couldn't hold a candle to you Did you do it for love? Did you do it for money? Did you do it for spite? Did you think you had to, honey? Who is gonna make it? We'll find out in the long run (in the long run) I know we can take it if our love is a strong one (is a strong one) Well, we're scared, but we ain't shakin' Kinda bent, but we ain't breakin' in the long run |

Same dances in the same old shoes
Some habits that you just can't lose There's no telling what a man might lose, After the thrill is gone The flame rises but it soon descends Empty pages and a frozen pen You're not quite lovers and you're not quite friends After the thrill is gone, oh, After the thrill is gone What can you do when your dreams come true And it's not quite like you planned? What have you done to be losing the one You held it so tight in your hand well Time passes and you must move on, Half the distance takes you twice as long So you keep on singing for the sake of the song After the thrill is gone After the thrill is gone You're afraid you might fall out of fashion And you're feeling cold and small Any kind of love without passion That ain't no kind of lovin' at all, well Same dances in the same old shoes You get too careful with the steps you choose you don't care about winning but you don't want to lose After the thrill is gone After the thrill is gone After the thrill is gone, oh After the thrill is gone |
