Hotel California

That night
Driving in my car
In my mind I remember
I arrived at a big dance
The bands were playing
I met a girl
We danced for several hours and I felt her body

There were thousands of people
We didn't leave there
In my car we swore
To never part

In the distance I saw
A hotel sign
I slowly went to the parking lot
And we heard there:

Welcome to the hotel
Welcome to the Hotel California
Lovely place, we toast with champagne
Welcome to the Hotel California
Lovely place, lovely place.

It was already another day
I saw her very beautiful
I take her in my car
She said 'stop right there'
Pointing to a house
'Come for me tomorrow'
She blew me a kiss
Through the air to me

Another day I return
To that same place
Everything is abandoned
I start to wait
The neighbors tell me
That no one lives there
That a girl lived there
Who died long ago

Welcome to the hotel
Welcome to the Hotel California
Lovely place, we toast with champagne
Welcome to the Hotel California
Lovely place, lovely place.

We toast with champagne
She left me her pain
That she needed me
That she suffered disappointment
That with me she found
The way to God
I didn't understand her words
Forgive me my love

Wherever you are
I won't forget you
I carry you in my mind
Love of eternity
I return to that hotel
I like to remember
That with my love
You could save yourself

Welcome to the hotel
Welcome to the Hotel California
Lovely place, we toast with champagne
Welcome to the Hotel California
Lovely place, lovely place.
