The From Yesterday
It reall sad the way they said good-bye Or maybe it just so bad she couldn't cry He packed his things, walked out the door and drove And she became the girl yesterday He a plane across the sea To some land She stayed at home and to understand How someone who had so close could be so far away And she became the girl from She doesn't know right She doesn't know wrong She only knows the pain that comes waiting for so long And she count the teardrops That she's cried he's away Because she knows deep in her That he'll be someday The on in the window; she's waiting by the phone Talking to a memory never coming home She dreams of his returning and the things he might say But she'll be the girl from yesterday Yeh, she'll always be the girl yesterday
Learn To Be
It's another day in paradise As you stumble to bed You'd give anything to Those ringing in your head You you could find happiness Just over that green You thought you be satisfied But you will- to be still We are like sheep without a We know how to be alone So we wander 'round this And wind up following the gods home But the flock out for another And keep answering that bell And one more starry-eyed Meets a farewell- to be still Learn to be Now the in your garden They don't so sweet you've forgotten The heaven at your feet There are so many In all these we send (We asking) How do I get out of do I fit in? Though the world is torn and Even if your heart is It's for you to awaken And you will- to be still Learn to be You just keep on on runnin'
Tequila
another tequila sunrise Starin' slowly the sky, said goodbye He was a hired hand Workin' on the he planned to try The go by night when the sun goes down Just lonely boy in town And she's out runnin' She wasn't just woman And I couldn't from comin' on It's been so Oh, and a hollow feelin' when It down to dealin' friends It never another shot of courage Wonder why the right words come You get numb It's another sunrise,this old world looks the same, frame, mm...
Hotel
On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my Warm of colitas, rising up through the air Up in the distance, I saw a shimmering light My head grew heavy and my sight dim I had to stop for the she stood in the doorway; I the mission bell And I was to myself, 'This could be Heaven or could be Hell' Then she lit up a and she showed me the way There voices down the corridor, I thought I heard say... to the Hotel California Such a place a lovely face Plenty of room at the Hotel Any of year, you can find it here Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, she got the bends She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she friends How they dance in the courtyard, sweet sweat. Some dance to remember, dance to forget So I up the Captain, 'Please bring me my He said,'We had that spirit here since nineteen sixty nine' And still voices are calling from far away, Wake you up in the middle of the Just to hear say... to the Hotel California Such a place Such a face They livin' it up at the Hotel What a nice surprise, your alibis on the ceiling, The pink on ice And she 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device' And in the chambers, They for the feast The stab it with steely knives, But they just kill the beast Last I remember, I was for the door I had to the passage back To the I was before 'Relax,'said the man, We are to receive. You can any time you like, but you can leave!
