Disney - Beauty And The Beast Lyrics

Artist: Disney

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Pop

  • Songwriters: Howard Ashman, Alan Menken

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 and
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before and
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

Tale as old as time
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

    I think this song means that if you love someone, it shouldn't matter what they look like. That's lust.

    The difference between lust and love is that lust is what you feel for a prostitute, or maybe Taylor Lautner. It's the clumsy, high school love associated with being "caught up in the moment," giggling, awkwardness, and stupid mistakes like getting pregnant at sixteen.

    Love is when you're with someone for better or worse. It's when you can accept everything about them. It's the knight in shining armor and his beautiful princess. It's loyalty and acceptance. It's kindness, forgiveness, mercy, and courage. It's when you would do anything for someone, even if you're terrified. It's when the earth moves when they're around, when you would die for them. As someone very wise once said, "When you would die for someone, when you would cry for their death, when you feel like you've been slapped in the face when you find out they died, when it makes you happy just to know they're safe and alive, THAT'S love."

    That's what Beauty and the Beast had - true, unconditional love. They accepted everything about each other, could always forgive each other, and would die for each other.

    It's not sex. It's what old married couples have - no matter how much they fight, they love each other totally and completely, and they complete each other. It's when you're willing to wait, because the person you love is worth it.
