Tale as old as time
A tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
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
Always just the same
Ever a surprise
Always a surprise
Ever as before
Always as before
And ever just as sure
And always just as sure
As the sun will rise
Whoa-whoa-oh, whoa
Ever just the same
Always just the same
Ever a surprise
Always a surprise
Ever as before
Always as before
Ever just as sure
Always just as sure
As the sun will rise
Oh, oh, oh
Tale as old as time
A tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
A tune as old as song
Bittersweet 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
A 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
Oh
Oh, oh
Beauty and the beast
