Merci à Nico pour les paroles.

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 (background)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year
Any time of year (background)
You can find it here
You can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany twisted
She's got the Mercedes bends
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That 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
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 the night
Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely Place
Such a lovely Place (background)
Such a lovely face
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise
What a nice surprise (background)
Bring your alibies

Mirrors on the ceiling
Depict champaign 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 programed to recieve
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave

Desperado why don't you come to your senses,
you've been out ridin' fences
for so long now.

Oh, you're a hard one, but I know that you got your reasons,
these things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow.

Don't you draw the queen of diamonds, boy,
she'll beat you if she's able,
you know the queen of hearts is always your best bet.

Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table,
but you only want the ones that you can't get.

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger,
your pain an' your hunger
they're drivin' me home.

An' freedom, oh, freedom, well, that's just some people talkin',
your prison is walkin' through this world all alone.

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow an' the sun won't shine,
it's hard to tell the night-time from the day.

You're losin' all your highs an' lows,
ain't it funny how the feelin' goes a way.

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses,
come down from your fences,
o pen the gate.

It may be rainin' but there's a rainbow above you.
You better let somebody love you,
you better let somebody love you,
before it's too late.

They were duelin', Doolin-Dalton,
high or low, it was the same.
Easy money and faithless women,
redeye whiskey for the pain.
Go down, Bill Dalton, it must be God's will,
two brothers lyin' dead in Coffeyville.
Two voices call to you from where they stood.
lay down your lawbooks now, they're no damn good.
Better keep on movin', Doolin-Dalton,
till your shadow sets you free.
If you're fast and if you're lucky,
you will never see that hangin' tree.
Well, the towns lay out across the dusty plains
like graveyards filled with tombstones
waitin' for the names.
And a man could use his back or-use his brains,
but some just went stir crazy, Lord, 'cause
nothin' ever changed
till Bill Doolin met Bill Dalton
He was workin' cheap, just bidin' time.
Then he laughed and said, "I'm goin'",
and so he left that peaceful life behind.

One of these nights,
one of these crazy old nights
we're gonna find out pretty mama,
what turns on your lights.

The full moon is callin',
the fever is high an' the wicked wind whispers and moans.

You got your demons, you got desires;
well, I got a few of my own.

Oo, someone to be kind to in between the dark and the light;
oo, comin' right behind you, swear I'm gonna find you
one of these nights.

One of these dreams,
one of these lost and lonely dreams, now;
we're gonna find one,
mm, one that really screams.

I've been searchin' for the daughter of the devil himself;
I've been searchin' for an angel in white.

(An') I've been waitin' for a woman who's a little of both
an' I can feel her but she's nowhere in sight.

Oo, lonliness will blind you in between the wrong and the right;
oh! oo, comin' right behind you,swear I'm gonna find you
one of these nights.

One of these nights,
mm, in between the dark and the light;
comin' right behind you, swear I'm gonna find you,
get you, baby, one of these nights.

One of these nights.
Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo.

One of these nights.
I can feel you, I can feel.

One of these nights.
Comin' right behind you swear I'm gonna find you now.

One of these nights.
An' I guess I'll die, guess I'll die, been all alone.

One of these nights.
One of these crazy, crazy, crazy nights.

One of these nights.
Swear I'm gonna find you, comin' right behind me, now.

One of these nights.
Hoo, hoo.

One of these nights.
An' an, I wanna stay.

One of these nights...
