Letra Lage nom ai Jimmy Buffett

Lage nom ai

Nordstrom was a simple man
Who had some non-conformist plan
To save his ass

Every night he danced alone
And blotted out the monotone
That was his past

He packs his bag of mysteries
And leaves the lonely memories
Where they belong

They came and went so easily
This rising tide identity
Sings like a song
Lets sing

Lage nom ai nom ai
When you know that life is just a game
Lage nom ai nom ai (oh!)
Hes the man who gave up his own name

In the roll of the cosmic dice
You win one heart and lose it twice
Before you know

Love is fine until you taste
This melancholy bouillabaisse
Called letting go

Lage nom ai nom ai
When you know that life is just a game
Lage nom ai nom ai (hey!)
Hes the man who gave up his own name

He moved on up to old beantown
And summered on the vineyard sound
To pass the day (day ay ay oh)

Island hopping crab key bound
Tendin bar he thinks hes found
A better way (ay ay ay oh)

Now were back where we belong
Without a clue and still without
A master plan (ay ay ay oh)

Incident or accident
It all depends on if youre meant
To understand (ay ay ay oh)

Lage nom ai nom ai
When you know that life is just a game
Lage nom ai nom ai
Hes the man who gave up his own name
Hes the man who gave up his own name

Spoken:
Eah, ol nordstroms gone. checked out. readin
The wrong kind of books...listenin to that wild
Carribbean music. he wiped himself out of his own computer.
Hes the man who gave up his own name. hes gone.

[note: lage nom ai nom ai is island patois which loosely translates:
The man who gave up his own name.]
