Hotel California's true meaning, like life itself, is elusive. And maybe that is the point.
A great song, with that iconic guitars solo at the end.

I worked in a record shop back in the day, and you'd get all types come in for a chat.
One bloke in particular was convinced that Hotel California was a devil worshipping song. I remember him saying stuff like a devil cult buying a church and converting it to their satanism in 1969. "we ain't had that spirit here since 1969". Heaps of other innuendo's and quirky meanings.
Maybe he was on the gear, but he wasn't the only one who would say that sort of stuff about the Eagles, Zeppelin, etc. They even had me taking the belts off the turntables to play Zep IV backwards !!!
Thinking more, it was Liverpool in the early 80's. maybe they all were on it !!!!

All good songs, for sure, and THANK YOU...
However, to expand, what is it about the lyrics that resonate with you?
A time in your life? A specific instance? A motivation when you need it? A dedication that reminds you of someone special? A nostalgia thing?
Eg this is somewhat self explanatory "Yes, and how many deaths will it take 'till he knows that too many people have died?" but this:
Unforgettable
That's what you are
Could mean to someone special OR the 2005 GF ;-)

I know you'll be a star in somebody else's sky, but why
Why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine"
