Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly
[Verse 2]
Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the beast
[Bridge]
Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the Sun will rise
[Verse 3]
Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong
[Verse 4]
Certain as the Sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast
[Outro]
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast
Written by: Howard Ashman, Alan Menken
