Winsome

Affable, amiable
All to the good
Draw in the audience
Just as he should
Handsome and charming
Crowd-pleading smile
All part of the amour
The cunning, the guile

When does the actor
Step away from the role
Where does the player
Go to save his soul

Look in the mirror
At what you've become
So effortlessly charming
Suave and handsome
Go see for yourself
For what needs to be done
Are you ready for tomorrow
Whatever may come
Don't clam up and fall silent
Too late to play dumb
Victim of your success
Or is it failure, my chum
No use complaining
Or banging the drum
Take a look at the path
And where you came from

But I'm no help, friendly as I may be
For I'm as captured and winsome as thee

Revelations revealing
More than is good
Shows the hero to be
Just some robbing hood
That debonair air and
Self-deprecating style
Can only be hidden
For a short while

When does the actor
Give up on his soul
Knowing there's nothing
Besides playing this role

Look in the mirror
At what you've become
So effortlessly charming
Suave and handsome
Go see for yourself
For what needs to be done
Are you ready for tomorrow
Whatever may come
Don't clam up and fall silent
Too late to play dumb
Victim of your success
Or is it failure, my chum
No use complaining
Or banging the drum
Take a look at the path
And where you came from

But I'm no help, friendly as I may be
For I'm as captured and winsome as thee
