I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don’t need to see any more to know that
I can read your mind
And they think it will make their lives easier
For god knows up till now it’s been hard
But the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
Oo, loo-loo, loo-loo, loo-loo
If life is just gamble
Gamble if you want to win
Oo, loo-loo, loo-loo, loo, loo
Life can be so easy
Let the wheel of fortune spin
Find a wheel, and it goes 'round, 'round, 'round
As it skims along with a happy sound
As it goes, along the ground, ground, ground
'Til it leads you to the one you love
You are alive and high in my dreams
You are the stars that mystify me
And you are the wolf that frightens the thief
And you are the voice that they disbelieve
We are not chained to the wheel
You are my lucky star
I saw you from afar
Two lovely eyes at me they were gleaming; beaming
I was star struck
You’re all my lucky charms
I’m lucky in your arms
You’ve opened heaven’s portal
Here on earth for this poor mortal
Ooh, baby, do you know what that’s worth?
Ooh heaven is a place on earth
They say in heaven love comes first
We’ll make heaven a place on earth
Ooh heaven is a place on earth
Heaven, I’m in Heaven,
And the cares that hung around me thro’ the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler’s lucky streak
When we’re out together dancing, cheek to cheek.
But I fell
Alive with you
And I fell
Some kind of Heaven
When I fell
Deep inside Her
And I fell
Some kind of Heaven
Give me
Give me
Give me
Some kind of Heaven
You, soft and only
You, lost and lonely
You, just like heaven
Then like a sinner before
The Gates of Heaven,
I’ll come crawling on back
To you.
-“BB”-
So that’s my refrain
I live in hell
'Cause I’ve been expelled
From Heaven
I think I was in Heaven…
Ornamental
Or warm and gentle
On the way to paradise
Ornamental
Or warm and gentle
Can you tell heaven from hell
As you will some day
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
Tonight we sleep on silken sheets
We drink fine wine and eat rare meats
On Carousel and gambling stake
Our fortunes speed, and dissipate
It’s candlelight and chandelier
It’s silver plate and crystal clear
The nights we stay at Hotel Grand
Satin sheets to lie on, satin pillows to cry on,
Still, I’m not happy, don’t you see?
Big long Cadillac, tailor-mades upon my back,
Still, I want you to set me free.

Hey boys, take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo’s Cadillac
Hey boys, take me back
I wanna ride in Geronimo’s Cadillac.
Take me back to Chicago
Lay my soul to rest
Where my life was free and easy
Remember me at my best
Take me back to Chicago
Where music was all I had
I tried to be good as I could
And sometimes that made me sad
Since you left me (you left me here on my own)
I’m so alone
Now you’re coming
You’re coming on home (now you’re coming on home)
I’ll be good like I know I should (yes, you should be)
You’re coming home (aaah)
You’re coming home
Three Lions on a shirt (it’s coming home, it’s coming)
Jules Rimet still gleaming (football’s coming home, it’s coming home)
Thirty years of hurt (it’s coming home, it’s coming)
Never stopped me dreaming (football’s coming home)
