Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bent unexpectedly
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the beast
Ever just the same
Ever as surprised
Ever as before
And ever just assure
As the sun will rise
Ever just the same
Ever as surprised
Ever as before
And ever just assure
As the sun will rise
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bitter, sweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
Certain as the sun
(Certain as the sun)
Rising in the east
(Tale as old as time)
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast
Beauty and the beast
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bent unexpectedly
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the beast
Ever just the same
Ever as surprised
Ever as before
And ever just assure
As the sun will rise
Ever just the same
Ever as surprised
Ever as before
And ever just assure
As the sun will rise
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bitter, sweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
Certain as the sun
(Certain as the sun)
Rising in the east
(Tale as old as time)
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast
Beauty and the beast
