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
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
cnd ever just as sure
cs the sun will rise

Oh oh oh oh

Whoa whoa oh oh
Ever just the same yeah
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
cs the sun will rise
Oh oh oh

Tale as old as time ooh ooh ooh
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
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast

Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast
