Steve Wynn - One Less Shining Star lyrics

By and large he was well accustomed To the twists and turns of the higher plane But as the story got closer to the finish He wondered if the ending would always be the same He took a look at the Yellow Pages And randomly signed up to a charitable cause That seemed most likely to fail without a trace While operating within the law And no one knew just where he had gone Or why anyone would want to pick up the trail But the evidence wasn't hard to connect Registered by the US mail The plane touched down outside of Argentina On a private runway near a sunny beach He stepped down onto the tarmac And moved a little further out of reach Fading from the public eye One less shining star in the sky
