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.
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air

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
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
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face.

For me, Hotel
California is a tune that never gets old.
True, it dates back to 1977 but it sure is a goodie.
It was the title track for the album of the same name.
Don Henley is the lead singer. It got a
Grammy for the Record of the Year in 1978.
When preparing the post I looked up the song on
Wikipedia and was blown away by the amount of analysis of what the lyrics
mean. Who cares? It's just a great tune.
This is my parent's song :3
