Lage Nom Ai

Jimmy buffett, russ kunkel, jay oliver, roger guth, and peter mayer

verse

nordstrom was a simple man

who hatched a 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

chorus

lage nom ai-nom ai

when you know that life is just a game

lage nom ai-nom ai

he's the man who gave up his own name

verse

in the roll of 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

chorus

lage nom ai-nom ai

when you know that life is just a game

lage nom ai-nom ai

he's the man who gave up his own name

verse

he moved on up to old bean town

and summered on the vineyard sound, to pass the day

island hopping, crab cay bound

tending bar he thinks he's found a better way

now were back where we belong

without a clue and still without a master plan

incident or accident

it all depends on if you're meant to understand

chorus

lage nom ai-nom ai

when you know that life is just a game

lage nom ai-nom ai

he's the man who gave up his own name

he's the man who gave up his own name
